order please, Master Carey, please continue
it's all here in my inquiry I've already laid out the strategy for a mission
And here is every known country in the world
its population, its religions
everything we need for the formation of a missionary society it's here
And this strategy, what is the essence of it? Community !
I believe that God is calling us to work in communities
we need lands to survive on
with everyone working together as they preach the gospel
I see schools, colleges,hospitals
printing shops
the light of God reaching out to touch folk at every level
this is God's work
let us expect great things from him let us attempt great things for him
Mr. chairman, may I speak?
Mr chairman may I introduce doctor Thomas surgeon to the East India Company
recently returned from Calcutta
the fields are white
never was the harvest more ready for reaping
all we need is labourers is to bring in that harvest
God has presented us with a task we must not ignore
Never ! listen to me, don' just dismiss it out of hand How can you even ask such a thing?
You know i wouldn't aks if I did not truly believe this is what God is calling us to
Well, he may be calling you but he's not calling me
Do you really think i'm going to set off for India
having a baby only being a few weeks old?
Mrs. Carey, Calcutta is a highly civilized place
I worked there is a surgeon for many years and i assure you
there will be little more danger than you find here
We will be working together with doctor Thomas
it's everything i've ever dreamed off
that's all it is, William
Dreams
it sounds more like a nightmare to me I won't go
I won't
if I had all the world
I'd freely give it to have you and the boys with me
but my duty is clear
I must go
