A CHURCH of nineteen members was organized on Sabbath, December 12, at Ravenna, Ohio.
A REPORT from Cumberland, Md., states that a twelve weeks' tent effort brought eleven into the truth.
A SABBATH-SCHOOL of about twenty-five members has been organized at the Hoag schoolhouse, near Cedar Springs, Mich.
Two more have taken their stand for the truth at Adrian, Mich., and have indicated their desire to unite with the church.
As a further result of the summer's tent effort, three were added to the church at Bridgeport, Conn., on Sabbath, December 26.
Two converts have been taken into the church at Springfield, Mo., recently, and it is expected that others will unite with that church soon.
BROTHER JOHN F. ANDERSON, reporting from Duluth, Minn., says: “Fourteen persons have begun to keep the Sabbath since we began our work here, July 6, and five have been baptized. One of the latter is now at Maplewood Academy. Four others are about ready for baptism. There are others who are studying with us.”
As a result of a series of meetings at Wolcott, Vt., seven persons were added to the church.
DURING the past quarter three persons have been baptized, and added to Church No. 1, New York City.
ELDER D. F. STURGEON reports several Sabbath-keepers at Lone Wolf, Okla., and a Sabbath-school of about seventeen.
THE following report comes from Brother Sydney Scott, Greenville, S. C. “Our work is prospering. Our tent effort brought twenty-five persons to the light of the message. We have begun a mission school here, with considerable interest thus far.”
THE following report comes from the church at Keokuk, Iowa: “Sabbath, January 2, four adults presented themselves for membership. After close questioning on the different points of our faith, three who have begun keeping the Sabbath recently, were admitted subject to baptism. The other one was advised to wait until more fully established. After meeting, one young woman who has been keeping the Sabbath for several weeks, requested that she be given opportunity to unite with us next Sabbath. Several others are weighing these matters.”
