VILLARD.—The week of prayer just past was the best we ever experienced. The readings were most excellent. The instruction and encouragement were just what we all needed. We gathered at our little meeting-house in Villard on Sabbath, Sunday, Tuesday, Friday, and Sabbath. On Sunday, Tuesday, and the last Sabbath we had two readings each day, with prayer, song, and testimony. At the close of the last meeting those present instructed me to write to the REVIEW that they had received much good and blessing from the week-of-prayer service. There were no emotional demonstrations, but careful, thoughtful self-examination, and earnest seeking after God and a deeper consecration to his service.
One good feature of the meetings was the earnest desire manifested for the conversion and salvation of our companions and children who are unsaved. We believe the time has fully come when the Lord will turn the hearts of the parents to the children, and the hearts of the children to the parents.
On the last day of the week of prayer the friends all gave as they were able for the cause of missions.
