Colorado

By G. W. Anglebarger

COLORADO SPRINGS.—We came to Colorado Springs March 19, and were gladly welcomed by the church here. They had been anxiously looking for our coming, which was greatly delayed on account of my sickness, from which I have not fully recovered, though I am able to get out to the church services, and assist in the meetings. I praise the Lord that I am able to speak to the people on the Sabbath. Our church is well filled each Sabbath, and the interest is increasing. We have one hundred twenty-six members. We are already finding opportunities for presenting the truths of God's Word in the homes of the people. One woman has begun to observe the Sabbath.

We are also planning to begin Sunday evening services. There is a good opening for work in Colorado City, and we are expecting to erect a tent there in June. In Colorado Springs, Colorado City, and Manitou there are, altogether, about sixty thousand inhabitants. These cities, which are so closely connected as almost to seem one city, are a great resort, and nearly double their population during the summer months. We are hoping and praying for the Lord to do great things here.

Our people have purchased lots in a very central location in Colorado Springs, upon which we are preparing to erect a new church that will accommodate about four hundred people. Our present church building is entirely too small, and is located at one side of the city.

We ask the prayers of all of God's people for our health and for the work here. If in either of these three cities any of our people have friends upon whom they would like to have us call, we will do so on receipt of their names and addresses. Our address is 1024 Colorado Ave., Colorado Springs, Colo. G. W. ANGLEBARGER.
