Stay Through the Camp-Meeting

The most blessed part of the camp-meeting is lost by a large number of our people each year by their inability or disinclination to remain at the encampment until the close of the meeting. The business of the conference and association is then generally finished, and the spiritual interests of the people are receiving more attention. The Holy Spirit has been working upon and impressing hearts. Under the cumulative influence of that work, the preaching of testing truths, and the personal efforts of the workers, hearts are yielding, and decisions are being made for eternity. The fullest success of the meeting as a whole and the soul interests of individuals demand that the last days of the meeting should be its best and strongest days. This cannot be so with a dwindling congregation. Therefore, brethren and sisters, stay through; and if you have not done so this year, determine that you will next year. It is to your own interest that you do so, as well as to the interest and advancement of the cause you love.
