CHESANING.—As I was asked by the president of our conference to visit the church at this place and do some baptizing, I spent last Sabbath and Sunday with them. In our meeting last Sabbath the Lord came very near by His Spirit. At the close of the discourse a revival service was held, and in a short time two seats were soon filled with those who feel the need of a new consecration, and who for the first time gave themselves to the Lord.
One of these was a lady from the town, who had been acquainted with our people, but had never made a profession, nor had commenced to keep the Sabbath. She decided then and there to live a Christian, and keep the Sabbath.
After an earnest testimony meeting four were taken into the church, three of whom were baptized in the afternoon. It was truly a beautiful scene, and the dear Lord came very near. One of these candidates was a mute, but when he came out of the water, an expression of happiness was seen on his face.
During our business meeting the next day two more were taken into the church who had been baptized some time before at one of our camp-meetings.
About twenty of our brethren and sisters from the St. Charles Church met with us on the Sabbath, and it was a good day for all. My heart is made to rejoice, by being able by the help of the Lord to lift his people.
