CLEVELAND.—The camp-meeting for the colored people closed September 21. The ten days spent here were days of spiritual refreshing. The early morning prayer-meetings will be remembered for God’s blessings. Our program, arranged for practical instruction on all lines indicated by the spirit of prophecy, was carried out as far as possible. Instruction from this source was especially helpful, and we praise God for this precious light. The mothers’ meeting drew the parents near to God. Elders J. F. Pogue and W. L. Bird cheerfully assisted, and rendered invaluable service in presenting the truth in its beauty. The law was presented in a most convincing manner to the eager, interested faces of all the hearers revealing the power of the Word.
This meeting has produced gratifying results; many are in the valley of decision, and a few have taken their stand for the truth. The field is fully ripe for a good worker to remain, and turn the interest into a complete victory for the truth, in gathering out a commandment-keeping people to meet the Lord. Our brethren, poor in this world’s goods, returned home with happy hearts, grateful for the signal blessing of our gracious Lord, the purifying doctrine of the Lord’s soon coming welding them together in bonds of brotherly love as never before. Helpful talks on health were given by Sister Worthington, who remains behind to give some sufferers the benefit of valuable treatments.
