Colorado Conference Proceedings

By G. F. Watson; Meade MacGuire

THE twenty-third annual session of the Colorado Conference convened in Denver, Colo., Aug. 18, 1905. More than one hundred delegates were present from the various churches. Four new churches were received into the conference, and plans were laid which it is hoped, with the blessing of God, will bring prosperity and success to our work the coming year.
Earnest and careful consideration was given to the various lines of conference work, including educational, tract society, Sabbath-school, and religious liberty work. Much interest was manifested in the foreign mission work, and especially in the enterprise undertaken early in the year by the young people of this conference, to support a missionary in Japan and one in China. Means are now at hand to support these native workers the coming year, in addition to the two now being sustained in Africa. Steps were also taken by the youth to support one or more native workers in India. Though we discontinued the support of our worker in Holland some months ago, we are steadily increasing our representatives in other foreign fields.
The following officers were elected for the coming year: President, G. F. Watson; Vice-President, W. Ziegler; other members of the Conference Committee, F. M. Wilcox, H. M. J. Richards, and Wm. Kennedy; Conference Secretary, Meade MacGuire; Treasurer, Mrs. Bertie L. Herrell; Tract Society Secretary, Mrs. Minnie MacGuire; Treasurer, Mrs. Bertie L. Herrell; Field Secretary of Sabbath-school and Young People's Work, Meade MacGuire; Canvassing Agent, A. G. Bodwell; Religious Liberty Secretary, Dr. W. W. Hills; Educational Secretaries, F. M. Wilcox and B. A. Wolcott.
A number of important resolutions were passed, which, if carried out in the fear of the Lord, will add much to the power and efficiency of our efforts the coming year.
G. F. WATSON, President, MEADE MACGUIRE, Secretary.
