APRIL 4 we began work in Medaryville, and after laboring there nearly three months, a church of twenty-two members was organized. Brother J. F. Steele assisted in the work at this place.
I was then called to Royal Center to join Elder J. C. Harris in a tent effort. We were at this place about three months. A few embraced the truth, and a church of eleven members was organized. It was then time for our annual camp-meeting, and surely it was a feast of good things to my soul. Since the camp-meeting I have visited several places.
In Logansport, where there has been a company of believers for a number of years, but no organization, a church of thirteen members was organized. Elder W. J. Stone officiated at each place. December 3 a meeting was appointed to consider the matter of erecting a church building in Logansport. There were only a few present, but the Spirit of the Lord came into the meeting, and seven hundred and twenty-five dollars was donated for the work. They expect to build in the spring.
We held a two-weeks’ meeting with the church at Lafayette, and the blessing of the Lord rested upon this effort, and some who had not attended meetings for years came. Some united with the church, and an elder and a deacon were elected. The ordinances were celebrated, a privilege they had not had for some time.
We next visited Walkerton, where we held a two-weeks’ meeting. This church had been neglected, and only six met on the Sabbath. God came very near, and a general revival was experienced. Some backsliders returned, and two for the first time took their stand for the truth. One united with the church; an elder was elected, the ordinances were celebrated, and we believe there are better days for the church.
The third angel’s message was the theme in all these places. We met with plenty of opposition in each place, but the Lord has promised to be with us unto the end; we took him at his word, and were not disappointed, for he has promised to take the weak things to confound the mighty. Praise his holy name.
