Description
"Brethren Pray for us" "Go ye into all the World and preach the Gospel to every creature." "These cards are intended to remind us of the servants of Christ whose faces we have seen and whose fellowship we have enjoyed but who are now absent, serving the Lord". "The proceeds from the sale of these cards, above the cost of production, will be entirely devoted to the Lord's work in foreign lands". In an oval cartouche is printed the face of a robed man, captioned "A. L. Lamb" and "Sailed 1883" above "Algiers, North Africa".
The back of the postcard has no handwriting on it.
