Home Missionary Work

By Wm. T. Markel

YORK HAVEN, PA.—We have no church or Sabbath-keepers nearer than Harrisburg, twelve or fourteen miles distant. There are six or eight families, neighbors, who live from one quarter to one and one-half miles from our place.
During the week of prayer we met with these people to sing and to pray with them. We had the reading for the evening, and also read from their Bibles, as one of these families requested me to read from their Bible, instead of mine; so I read from both, and they admitted that there was no difference.
Since the week of prayer they have been urging us to come, and we have been going first to one home, and then to another. We have been giving out a great many tracts and papers, andloaning books. May the Lord water the seed, and may he continue to give us wisdom and strength to go forward and in his name sow the seed.
WM. T. MARKEL.
