Meetings in Wisconsin.

By I. Sanborn

My meetings at Sand Prairie, which have lasted eight weeks, closed yesterday. The following is the result as far as known: Fifteen have commenced keeping the Sabbath. Eight were baptized, and ten were received into the church; also many others are deeply interested, yet we could not persuade them to act now. We trust they will soon. Much prejudicial opposition has been silenced. An interesting Bible Class and Sabbath School has been organized. The church feels clothed with new strength and courage to battle on for “life, life, eternal life.” May the Lord help them to let their light now shine, so that their convicted neighbors may be constrained to keep God’s commandments and obey the gospel, and be saved when Jesus comes.

To the friends at Sugar Grove I wish to say, Be patient, and I will come just as soon as the Lord will open the way.

I. SANBORN.
