England

By Ole Andres Olsen

BATH.—April 4 I returned to London from a tour in the North England Conference. I was pleased to note the progress of the work. I remained in London two days, then started for the Welsh mission field, to attend a meeting at Newport. The meetings continued four days. Sabbath evening thirteen were baptized, and on Sabbath forenoon a church of thirty-three was organized. Of these, twenty-seven were new members, not having been connected with us before. I am glad to say that a very encouraging work has been well begun at Newport. Brother Ballenger has been laboring at that place for the past nine months; but the work there is by no means finished. A goodly number are on the very point of obeying the truth.

I came here to remain one week, after which I will go back to London. The last week in April we are to have a meeting of the British Union Conference, to plan for our work of the coming season. The South England Conference will hold its next annual meeting at Southsea, May 20-29. The Lord has blessed us in a marked manner in this conference, for which I feel sincerely thankful.
