The Campaign in Greater New York

By R. D. Quinn

THE readers of the REVIEW have doubtless heard of the special efforts being put forth in New York City this summer to bring the truth prominently before the people. Eight aggressive tent efforts are to be conducted among the English, German, Danish-Norwegian, Swedish, and Afro-American nationalities. Efficient workers have been secured as leaders in these various languages.

The Bible Workers' Training-school, which opened in April, is being successfully conducted, and is filled with a promising class of students, who are taking the special instruction.

An important council will be held in New York City, July 7-11, to consider the great city problem, and the most effective methods of labor. Many of our leading brethren are planning to attend this council, among whom will be Elders A. G. Daniells, O. A. Olsen, W. B. White, G. B. Starr, B. G. Wilkinson, Dr. Kress, and the presidents of many of the conferences on the Atlantic Coast. We believe this meeting will result in a movement toward more aggressive evangelistic work in the important centers of population.

Preparatory to the opening of the campaign, joint meetings are being held for prayer and counsel, and the hand of faith is being extended higher and higher for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit for service. These meetings are seasons of great spiritual refreshing, and the workers are going forward strong in faith, believing that the hour has come when the warning message is to go in power to the cities. The most advantageous locations are being secured for the meetings. Elder O. O. Bernstein has erected a large quarter-pole tent in one of the most important centers in New York.

We earnestly solicit the prayers of our people everywhere for the success of this campaign, and we shall be glad to report from time to time the progress of the work. R. D. QUINN.
