College View Meetings and Offering
By J. J. GRAF.
COLLEGE VIEW.—We held district meetings in the homes of the people every afternoon, for those who could not attend the evening meetings; these proved a real success. Evenings we met in divisions in the several vestries of the church building. On Monday and Wednesday evenings, the church, college, and sanitarium united in a general meeting, when Elder Spicer spoke to us on the “Eastern Question” and the “Spreading of the World-wide Message.” The meetings have been a great blessing in many ways. Excellent impressions have been made, and good fruits are manifested; backsliders were reclaimed, and the youth took a decided stand for the Lord. Many testimonies rang with clear notes of victory over sin and the flesh. The readings were real spiritual food. I think I can safely say that I have never before seen such a general move in the ranks of God’s people for a march to victory. I am greatly encouraged that so many members of this church have taken an advanced position in the Christian warfare. The annual offering from this place amounts to about five hundred and forty dollars, and will, I believe, reach six hundred.
