The Biennial Union Conferences
By G. A. Irwin
DEFINITE word having been received from all the union conference presidents, we are now prepared to announce the time and place of these meetings, as follows: Atlantic, November 1-9, South Lancaster, Mass.; Southern, January 4-14, Nashville, Tenn.; Central, January 18-28, Kansas City, Mo.; Southwestern, February 1-11, Keene, Tex.; Pacific, February 15-25, Portland, Ore.; Northern, March 1-11, Minneapolis, Minn.; Lake, April 19-29, Berrien Springs, Mich. It has been arranged for Elder Daniels and the writer to attend all these meetings, and at some of those nearest the headquarters other members of the General Conference Committee will be in attendance. Many questions that have an important bearing on the future prosperity of the work in these different conferences, as well as the field at large, will come up for consideration at these meetings. Hence, we hope to see a full attendance of delegates and leading brethren. These meetings should also be a time of special spiritual refreshing. We all need a fresh baptism of the Holy Spirit in order to obtain and maintain complete victory in our own lives. We need it to enable us to plan wisely. We need it to unify our hearts and minds and the varied interests of our work. And last, but not least, we need it in our ministry that we may do effectual and acceptable work for the Master. So do not come to these meetings merely to get help for some local enterprise, but come with the primary object of receiving and imparting spiritual blessings, trusting to the Lord and your brethren to make provision for all essential home interests. We trust that both union and State conferences will give timely and ample notices of the time and place of the meeting in their respective districts, and urge a full attendance.
