“...are still looking for a suitable permanent home.
DOROTHY JOYCE, now living , near Uckfield in Sussex, presented her husband with another daughter in the summer, making six girls in all. She finds the older ones very helpful in the home.
OLIVE JOYCE is still at Tienshui, Kansu, and is doing a lot of evangelistic work in the country districts.
RAYMOND JOYCE and his wife, Mona, have spent three years in Canada and U.S.A. Raymond worked for nine months with the Soldiers’ and Airmens’ Christian Association and as Missionary Secretary for the Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship of North America, while Mona and the two children, Margery and Rob, remained in New Jersey.

Raymond had a good deal of deputation work, including a tour in Ireland....”
