Masonic Temple Sunday Evening Meetings
THE series of Sunday evening meetings which has been maintained continuously in the Masonic Temple in this city, beginning on Sunday evening, Dec. 13, 1903, was brought to a close last Sunday evening. At these services Brethren A. G. Daniells, W. A. Spicer, J. S. Washburn, and W. W. Prescott have presented an outline study of the leading features of this gospel message, giving special prominence to those prophecies which set forth the experiences of the last generation and the nearness of the coming of our Lord. When the weather has been reasonably favorable, the audiences have numbered from three hundred and fifty to seven hundred, including a large proportion of earnest, thinking men. Ten to fifteen thousand copies of a four-page outline of each discourse have been distributed in the city every week: Many have made a careful study of these outlines who have not attended the meetings. Some of the leading people of the city, including ambassadors from foreign countries, have been furnished with these outlines. Thus the truth has been called to the attention of a large number to whom this message was entirely new. Some definite fruit of the efforts put forth has already appeared; and our Bible workers are fully occupied in conducting personal and family studies with those who are seriously searching the Scriptures to see whether these things are so. We are confident that there will be a good number of additions to the company of believers in this city as the result of this first winter's work. Sunday evening services will now be conducted in the M Street church, beginning next Sunday evening. Brother L. C. Sheafe still continues his Sunday evening meetings in the True Reformers Hall, twelfth and U Streets, with a good interest.
