“The word has gone forth to Europe, ‘Go forward!’ The humblest toiler for the salvation of souls is a laborer together with God, a coworker with Christ. Angels minister unto him. As we advance in the opening path of His providence, God will continue to open the way before us. The greater the difficulties to be overcome, the greater will be the victory gained.” —The Review and Herald, December 6, 1887.

Mrs. White lived to see the day when a strong constituency of Seventh-day Adventist believers had been raised up in Europe through the untiring effort put forth by many laborers. She rejoiced over the prosperity attending many lines of work in the various countries, and over the reports of rapidly increasing numbers of believers, totaling in 1914 upwards of thirty-three thousand,—more than the entire number of Sabbath-keeping Adventists throughout the world at the time of her sojourn in Europe.

And the great was Mrs. White’s rejoicing whenever there were brought to her attention sample copies of books and other publications in the various languages of the European field, the product of many publishing centers, where was issued denominational literature with a total annual sale in 1913 of $482,000.
