LABORS AT TANHASSEN, MINN.
By F. W. Morse
ABOUT the 1st of Jan. I began a series of meetings at Tanhassen, Martin Co., and have continued the effort to the present time with a growing interest, and encouraging results. Ten families have taken a decided stand upon present truth, and still others are moving out. The truth works out its purifying effects upon the people, and they are at work in the direction of reform. Our Sabbath meetings are very interesting. We have a crowded house of active worshipers. We have had some difficulties to labor against, in the form of sickness, and ministerial opposition; but the Lord did not forsake us. Bro. Dimmick, who has been laboring in concert with Eld. Pierce, responded to my request and met with me, rendering timely assistance. He remains a week or ten days to help in the work here, also in an adjoining neighborhood. The calls are many. The county attorney has made a special request that I should come to the county seat and hold meetings there. From three other different points the calls are equally urgent. But we shall be careful to try to hold things together here. We have organized a Bible Class, and shall try to meet with them every Sabbath. We earnestly desire the help and watchcare of the experienced ministers of our Conference. There are not less than twenty or twenty-five who desire baptism, and still others of whom we have strong hopes. We hope to have the labors of our Conference Committee soon. Pray for us. F. W. MORSE.
