Mission Work In
Cuba Continuing
Mission work in Cuba was studied Tuesday by members of the Woman's Society of the Baptist Church at Washington.
Recent developments in Cuba were discussed and the opinion of members was that it was impossible to get a true picture of conditions there at this time, however, mission work there is continuing.
It was stated that items totaling approximately $180,000 for Cuba are included in the 1960 Annie Armstrong Christmas offering. Miss Margaret Compton, treasurer of the Society, reported that the Washington Society had contributed $100 to that fund.
The land reform laws of Cuba proved most interesting, as they are so closely related to the welfare of the people they are there to help.
It was pointed out that some farms here contain 500,000 acres, while hundred of thousands of Cubans are barely existing on very small portions of land.
In spite of the unrest in Cuba, the Baptist Home For The Aged outside of Havana, , has become a reality, even during these troubjed times. The Cuban Baptist Hospital in Havana is growing in usefulness and nfluence.
Mrs. Gilbert Updike was in charge of the meeting which was followed by a social hour with tea.
