Corsicana (Tex.) Camp Meeting for the Colored

By M. G. Nunes

Our camp meeting, which was held July 1-11, was indeed the best in the history of the work in the North Texas Conference. The Spirit of the Lord was manifested in the camp during all the ten days of our stay. There was seen a coming together in the experience of the people. Old wrongs were made right, and there was great rejoicing among the people of the Lord. While we should have been glad to see all differences put away at the respective churches prior to the camp meeting, still we were glad to see the people break down under the influence of the Spirit of God at the meeting.
Elder G. F. Watson, president of the union, was with us, and gave excellent help. Among our colored ministers were Elders Jones and Lightner, from Arkansas and Oklahoma, respectively. These brethren contributed much to the success of the meeting.
This meeting was indeed a season of refreshing to all. At the night services there were present a large number of friends not of our faith. These were much impressed with the truth spoken from the desk. A few have expressed their desire to obey the truth. We hope they will stand by their conviction.
