- Notes
- "First Series".
- "Compiled by The Rev. James T. Irvine, Warden of Lay Readers of the Diocese of Fredericton".
- "Second Printing".
- "One year ago today the first of a limited number of mimeographed copies of YOU WILL BEAR WITNESS was put together. Since that time the collection has been distributed throughout Canada and the United States. .... The collection was designed for use, chiefly by Layreaders, of persons serving the Lord in isolated and distant corners of our Church." -- Preface to the Second Printing.
- "This collection was undertaken with the hope that men and women active in lay ministry within the Church might be given contemporary material on which to build the preaching moment. These sermons will not doubt have to be adapted for local application and use. No effort has been made to 'edit' the contributions that came in from around the world. Sermons were left intact so that you might gain a sense of the diversity of our Communion." -- Intro.
