"10 - A Confirmation Scene. The majority of the candidates here are adult converts from Heathenism. Many undergo great persecution to confess Christ. Once a Telugu woman, when threatened, replied 'You may burn my house and even kill me, but I will never give up Christ.' There are more than a million Protestant Christians in India." A large group of people are shown sitting before a cloth booth. A missionary in vestments speaks from the shade of the booth. The back of the postcard is blank.
