Tennessee

By W. J. KEELE.

SABBATH, December 19, was a blessed day for the Leach (Tenn.) church. As I had not visited the church-members since returning from Memphis, I decided to spend the entire week in visiting the brethren, and trying to get all interested in seeking God for his Holy Spirit.
Sabbath, December 12, the church was asked to fast, and to pray earnestly all through the week. But few saw the importance of doing this; but as the end of the week was nearing, some saw their mistake. At the meeting on Friday, all were asked to fast on the Sabbath, December 19, and come for an all-day meeting. We surely experienced the greatest refreshing from the Spirit of God that the Leach church ever had. Brethren confessed their faults one to another, and prayed and asked prayer for others. All were moved by the Spirit of God to get closer to him.
Three took their stand to walk with God. We decided to continue our meeting the next day, and at this service twelve of the children and youth requested prayer.
Dear brethren and sisters, we pray for you and the Lord’s work. We can help but little with our means; but pray for us that we may give our all — even ourselves.
