For Winning Souls

In expressing her gratitude to God for the opening of this second sanitarium in southern California, and referring to its being representative of the places that God had reserved at low cost for such work, Mrs. White urged those connected with the institution to “keep in mind the purpose for which this property has been secured.” She said: SHM 341.3

“The institution is to act a special part in bringing souls to Christ, leading them to love God and keep His commandments. Unless the workers have a living connection with God, unless there is seen in the institution a spirit of kindness and compassion, which will recommend Bible truth and win souls to Christ, the establishment of the sanitarium will have been in vain. Spiritual as well as physical healing is to be brought to those who come for healing.”—E. G. White Letter 97, 1905. SHM 341.4
