Mission among the Finns.

To the Reverend Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States,
assembled as the 13th Delegate Synod in St. Louis, Mo., from
May 10 to May 20, 1911.

Dear fathers and brothers in Christ!

On the basis of a detailed report from our subcommittee in Los
Angeles, Cal., the Mission Commission of the California and Nevada
District, at its regular meeting held March 7, 1911, resolved to ask
the Reverend Delegate Synod to take up the mission among the
Finns, specifically at Bisbee, Ariz., as a branch of its
foreign-language missions, and to hand over this new mission work to
the Commission for Foreign-Language Missions.

A detailed explanation and grounds for this memorial are contained
in the full report of the subcommittee of the mission board of the
California and Nevada District. This report is enclosed and is to be
regarded as part of this memorial. With Christian brotherly greeting,

Respectfully,
The Mission Commission of the California and Nevada District:
J. H. Schröder, secretary.
J. H. Theiss, chairman.
