MEETINGS IN MICHIGAN.

By Joseph Bates

According to appointment I held a series of interesting meetings with the churches of Windsor, Charlotte, and Oneida, at Pottersville, Sabbath and Sunday, February 27 and 28, at the close of which, said churches held a business meeting to raise means to build them

a suitable house of worship at Pottersville, Eaton Co.

Spent two days in Oneida, visiting the scattered members of the church, and held one profitable meeting with them. After which, March 1, rode with Bro. and Sr. Dubois eighteen miles to Alaidon, where I joined Bro. Matteson who was still successfully winning souls to Christ. As they come to the knowledge and love of the precious truths connected with the third angel’s message, they zealously unite with those who have preceded them in piling up materials to build them a commodious and convenient house of worship. May the Lord strengthen and bless them to labor in his vineyard till the Master comes.
