“The Woman’s Home Mission Society has every reason to be happy because of its investment here, and to be proud of its heroic representatives in Hopi Land. The revival is coming. It seems to be near at hand. Hopi men and women in sickness and sorrow have felt the touch of the Lord Jesus Christ. In waywardness and crime they have heard His loving reproof. In the twilight of uncertainty they have caught a faint gleam in the direction of Calvary. Many, very many are secretly convinced that they are wrong, dangerously and painfully wrong. The hand of the Savior has been gently laid upon the impressionable younger generations, and it may be soon that “a little child shall lead them.” the Hopi people, into the enfolding grace of God.”
