Northern Union Conference, Attention!
By R. A. Underwood
The third biennial session of the Northern Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists will convene at the Seventh-day Adventist church on Fourth Ave. S., and Lake St., Minneapolis, Minn., March 5-15, 1908. Aside from the regular biennial business, election of officers, and such other business as will naturally come before the conference, it is expected that this will be emphatically a missionary conference. Arrangements have been made by the four conferences now constituting the Northern Union,—Iowa, Minnesota, and North and South Dakota,—to have all their laborers attend this gathering. We expect a number of the members of the General Conference Committee to be present, from among these, Elder G. A. Irwin, W. A. Spicer, W. B. White, L. H. Christian, S. Mortenson, and G. F. Haffner. Hence it will be seen that we shall have a strong force of laborers and instructors in attendance, aside from the laborers in the union. The representation of the conference as delegates will consist of the executive committee of the Northern Union Conference, such members of the General Conference Committee as may be present, and each conference is entitled to one delegate at large, and one additional delegate for every one hundred fifty of its membership. The meeting will open Thursday evening, March 5. The first meeting for prayer and Bible study will open at 8:45 A. M., March 6. The organization of the conference will follow in the forenoon. It is desired that the delegates should all be present at the opening of the conference. A program outlining the work of the conference has been prepared. If any laborer in the Northern Union Conference fails to receive a copy of this program, he should write to T. D. Gibson, 2718 Third Ave. S., Minneapolis, Minn., and he will be supplied. Important Bible studies will be conducted throughout the entire conference. It is requested that all who expect to attend shall notify Elder A. W. Kuehl, Box 989, Minneapolis, Minn., at least two weeks prior to the opening of the meeting, so that full arrangements can be made for their comfort. The brethren in Minnesota who will have the burden of caring for the delegates will give full notice in the Northern Union Reaper and in the Iowa Bulletin of what may be expected of those in attendance. In behalf of the Executive Committee, R. A. UNDERWOOD, President.
