Bishop Trimble Rowe Described Scope
Missionary Work In Alaska
To Pennsylvanians
,n * ___________
Before a meeting of the Episco
pal diocese of Pennsylvania re_
cently, the Rt. Rev. Peter Trim,
ble Rowe, Bishop of Alaska, des
cribed missionary work in the
northern field. His appearance
was described by a Philadelphia
newspaper as follows:
“Mission workers, far.called
from their distant fields, have re.
told their stories of healing, of
education, of marching side by
side with alien folk up the hard
faltering way of civilized Chris
tian life.
‘‘That spirit reached its zenith
when Bishop Rowe told of fight
ing blizzards, of fesding off pira.
tical fur.sealers from the friend
ly ingenuous Esquimaux folk, of
carrying the gospel by dogsled,
and of preaching it in snowbur.
ied igloos, in barren little chapels
which he helped to build with his
own hands.
“The aged churchman made no
effort at oratory, but every sen
tence of his address rang with an
unquestioning faith in missionary
activity.
‘‘For a few moments he dwelt
reminiscently, but despite his
words, lovingly, on ‘that bleak,
storm.swept, terrible land, in
which his whole gospel mission
has been spent; told of how the
church had labored to establish
churches, had carried the gospel
to storm.buried igloos, had in
structed young Eskimaux in lay
ministry ‘until now I do not know
of one Esquimaux who is not a
Christian on our whole stretch of
the Arctic.’ ”
