Sister S. Haff writes from Macomb Co., Mich.: It is about five years since I left the Baptist church, of which I had been a member for fifty years, and united with the Adventists. And I feel to praise the Lord that he convinced me of the truth, as I fully believe. I am at present filled with the love of Christ, hoping that he soon will come and gather his dear children to himself. I feel a great desire that I may live a righteous, godly life, and draw near to my Saviour, who has done so much for me, and be ready to meet him when he comes. Brethren and sisters, let us strive to come up to the help of the Lord against the mighty. He has not placed us here to be idle; but we should work in his vineyard, and let our light shine to the world. Sister Rencher, of Cook Co., Ill., writes: I have received four numbers of the Review, which I feel very much interested in. I am all alone here: for there are none others in this place of like belief. I wish that some one could come this way to preach the third angel's message. There is a large field in this section. I have never heard a sermon preached on Adventism, or the Sabbath question; but ever since I was old enough to read and understand, I have believed that the seventh day was the day to keep. God being my helper, I am determined to strive to overcome the world, the flesh, and Satan, and at last be found with the remnant of God's children in that world which shall be without evil. I desire an interest in all your prayers, that I may be ready to meet Christ at his coming. Sister Olive S. Knight writes from Windham Co., Vt.: Allow me to say that I appreciate the Review very highly, and love the principles of truth and purity which it advocates, and am trying to profit by its instructions. I have been trying to serve the Lord about seventeen years, and was a member of the Methodist church until one year ago last spring. Being convinced that the seventh day was the Sabbath of the Lord, I was enabled by the abounding grace of God, to tear my soul away from the strong ties which bound it to dear brethren and sisters in Christ, and step out, as it were, alone, upon the naked word of God. I did miss outward consolation; and sometimes felt lonely and desolate; but, glory be to God; his grace was sufficient for me; and the experience proved profitable to me in many respects. And now I have the privilege of meeting with the little church in this place on the Sabbath, to unite with them in trying to worship God, which I esteem a great privilege. The church here is steadily increasing in numbers, and also in spirituality. It seems to be like a city set on a hill, whose light cannot be hid; and although scoffers mock at its simplicity, yet the pure in heart are being drawn toward it. Bro. A. M. Antisdale writes from Cattaraugus Co., N. Y.: I am a more ardent lover of present truth than I have ever been before. Although much of the time the hand of disease is heavily upon me, it does not so prostrate me that I cannot read the word of God and understand that it is our privilege to believe the promises and be saved. I have many seasons of rejoicing, even in the midst of my tribulations. I praise the Lord that his Holy Spirit ever led me to take him for my portion, and for his ruling hand in my afflictions, which are working out for me what I should have failed to seek for had I always been prospered, that is, a far more exceeding weight of glory. Having received the paper so long free, how can I ask it any longer without paying for it? But I have not the means. Much that I know of the truth as taught by our people, the paper has taught me, so that I am not only in debt for the cost of the paper, but for the real substantial instruction it has imparted to me and my family. I sincerely thank the Association for their forbearance toward me. I pray God for the prosperity of the cause which the paper defends, and I will try to get others to subscribe for it. Bro. Kunselman writes from Blue Earth Co., Minn.: We feel much encouraged to go on in the good way. We are trying to live out the Health Reform, which is a great blessing to us. We desire to live up to all the light as fast as we receive it, that we may be able to keep pace with the message, and go with God's chosen people to the kingdom. We see omens of good in the cause everywhere. We feel to thank God for the glad news that Bro. Ingraham has moved to this State. I dare say his labors are highly appreciated by all true-hearted Sabbath-keepers; and we hope and trust that the time may not be far distant when Minnesota will have one or two more strong men, who will pursue a straight-forward course, and cry aloud and cause Israel to see her sins. We have reason to believe that Minnesota is a very good field of labor. There seems to be an ear to hear wherever we go, and we are glad to hear that there are here and there, through this part of the country, some who are trying to exert a saving influence. May the Lord speed on the well-begun work, and send more laborers into his vineyard.
