Church Dedication

By A. R. Sandborn

For several years the church at Camden, N. J., has been meeting in rented halls, and as a result the work has not advanced as it should. Two years ago last spring we invited Elder M. C. Whitmarsh to take up work in this city. Two tent efforts and a camp meeting have been held there since that time.
About a year ago the church, under the leadership of Brother Whitmarsh, began to plan for a building. The Lord has blessed all the way along in the effort, so that Sunday, November 15, we were able to dedicate a fine brick building to the worship of God. Elder W. A. Spicer preached the dedicatory sermon.
This building is worth $6,000, with a debt of less than $2,800, and provision has been made for raising that. The membership is now over seventy. Seven have recently been baptized, and others are now ready for baptism. We are thankful for the way the work is advancing in these Eastern cities.
