Field Notes and Gleanings

A CHURCH building costing nearly $1,000 was dedicated at Cottage Grove, Ore., February 16. Brother B. C. Tabor has been laboring there since July 1, 1907.
FROM Cleveland, Ohio, Brother G. P. Gaede writes: “We are enjoying the work in Cleveland. Our parents are here helping us pull in the gospel net. Six more souls in the German department have lately taken their stand for the truth. One family, for whom we have labored just one year, have finally decided to obey. Praise the Lord. He has work for every Seventh-day Adventist. The Lord is good. Others are deeply interested.”
“BRETHREN Meade MacGuire and H. B. Steele have been holding meetings in Kansas City, Mo., for ten days, with good results. At the close of the last Sabbath discourse by Elder MacGuire, twenty-four gave their hearts to the Lord. Twenty-one of these who are just starting in Christian service, will be baptized and join the church. The greater part of this number are young people who have grown up in the church and Sabbath-school. At the close of the Sunday evening service two others took their stand for God. The meetings will continue indefinitely.”
FROM Michigan, Brother John E. Hanson writes: “In Grand Rapids I found a wide-awake, Christian company of men and women. Elder J. M. Wilbur and myself have greatly appreciated the hearty co-operation of this church. Eleven active, tithe-paying members have been added; five of them by baptism. We feel confident that there are still others who will be identified with us soon. There is a good, live Sabbath-school, and considerable interest has been awakened in the study of the Testimonies. The Young People’s Society is also at work, there being a good attendance at the meetings.”
BROTHER G. F. WATSON writes: “Sabbath, February 15, was a good day for the church at Longmont, Colo. Elder M. D. Warfle was sent there some time ago, and before his meetings should have been closed, he broke down, and has been confined to his bed ever since, with the exception of a few hours at a time. But as a result, eleven dear souls were baptized—six adults and five children. We were much pleased when we found such a goodly company ready to follow their Lord into the watery grave. Twelve will unite with the church there. The Longmont church is in a prosperous condition in every way, and we are sure that the blessing of the Lord has been attending the efforts put forth. We were made sad to think that Elder Warfle could not carry on the good work begun, but the Lord knows best. We are glad to say that Elder Warfle is improving.”
