Sally wanted to be a missionary when she grew up. One day she said to her mother, “I don’t have to wait to be a missionary. I can be one right now! I can send out gospel tracts through the mail.”

So she got some envelopes and a pile of gospel tracts. In each envelope she put five tracts. Then she put postage stamps on them, and Mother addressed them to families in the community. Sally was so happy to know that she could do some missionary work right at home!

“What have you done for the Saviour today?

Have you witnessed for Him at your work or your play?

Have you made known to others this Saviour and Friend,

Who will stay close beside you right through to the end?

God has a record, a record each day,

Of all that you do, what you think or you say;

Will you witness for Him in this dark world of sin,

And let your light shine here for others, and Him?”

A.E.
