The Cause on the Rise

Bro. J. R. Goodenough writes from Washington, Sauk Co., Wis.: “I would say for the encouragement of the readers of the Review that the cause is on the rise in this part of the State. I met with the church on Narrows Prairie, in Bro. Blood’s neighborhood last Sabbath, and found that there were seven out of eight that have laid aside their idols of tea, coffee, tobacco, artificials, hoops, and jewelry. Organization is doing a good work here, and my prayer is that the time will soon come when the church will become a perfect man. Eph. iv, 13.

“I have given a few discourses in a school-house here, and although prejudice was strong at first, it soon gave way, and three expressed their determination to keep all of God’s holy law. Others, I think, will soon take their stand with the remnant.”
