(Report 806)
(Covering a 21-year period from July 1, 1953, to December 31, 1955)

Foreword

The church’s service in World Relief is the spontaneous
expression of the love that it has received and learned from its
Savior and is fashioned in its motivation by the compassion with
which He ministered each day to troubled, suffering people.

Love, as He taught it to us, has a long, an unlimited reach.
There is continuing desperate need that we exercise it. Two of
every three people in our world are cold or hungry, usually both.
‘Countless numbers are homeless, victims of exile, exposure, im-

poverishment, and of diseases that thrive in undernourished bodies.
