Eastern Pennsylvania

By W. J. Fitzgerald

It has been about a month since our eight tent companies closed their efforts. About one hundred new believers are rejoicing in present truth as the immediate results. Considerable other fruit of these efforts will doubtless be seen later. Between thirty and forty have been added to the number of believers in West Philadelphia as the results of the effort conducted there by Elder O. O. Bernstein and those assisting him.

The number of those walking in the light in Scranton has been increased by about twenty since Elder W. H. Smith and other workers began the tent effort there about June 20.

A church of over twenty has been organized at Jersey Shore, where Brother I. M. Martin, assisted by others, conducted a tent effort during the summer.

There are new believers in Harrisburg, Stroudsburg, Honesdale, and Pottstown, and among the Germans in Philadelphia, where Brethren Spies, Baierle, Wiest, Hilton, and Meyer respectively have conducted tent-meetings during the season just closed.

Let us all rejoice together that the Lord has blessed his servants in giving them so many souls as the result of their efforts. And shall we not all pray earnestly that all these new believers may prove true and loyal to the message in all its parts? W. J. FITZGERALD.
