| 4 July 1939 | Sir Wilfred Grenfell to Jesse Halsey |
Dear Jesse:
Thanks for your little affectionate thought and action. What big things little things may be. Don’t I wish you were coming on the journey. We sail on Monday.
When I get back, most certainly come down and bring Mrs. Halsey and put in a few days with us. I know the communion would be helpful to me.
The wops keep up in number, and I am still as optimistic as ever about the coming of the Kingdom of God. Christ still means to me the hope of humanity. I sometimes wish that modern female youth were not so conscious of its modernity.
Be sure to come. You can drive here so easily on route #7.
My love to you both.
Yours ever,
Wilfred Grenfell
