Hawaiian Islands

By C. D. M. WILLIAMS.

HONOLULU.—We learn that Elder R. C. Porter is to pass through here June 27, on his way to Africa, and we are making an extra effort to finish our little chapel, so as to have it dedicated when he comes. All the money has been raised except about fifty dollars, and the work is done except the ceiling of the two sides and one end, and the casings to put on the inside of the door and windows. This we think we can do before he comes. The chapel is twenty-eight by forty feet, with fourteen-foot studding. Our house is thirty-two by thirty-two feet, with two porches and four rooms attached, making a house of eight rooms and two lanais. We are exceedingly thankful to the Lord for the church and home, as every move toward securing them seems to have been attended with his blessing. We have come to the time when every move should be a right one, directed by the Spirit of God. And all lines of the work should advance with rapid strides. We feel that we must live very near to the Lord, so that we may not be found wanting. C. D. M. WILLIAMS.
