South Carolina

By C. G. Manns

Since reporting last the new Sabbath-keepers of Charleston have opened a mission church-school, with Sister M. G. Mason as teacher. She began with three Monday, Feb. 17, 1913. The attendance has now increased to sixteen, and more are coming. We are going to work up a large school by next school year, by the Lord’s help.
The writer spent a few days in Lincolnville, S. C., with a company of twelve or more. Six of these are waiting for baptism.
On the twenty-first I went to Johnston, S. C., and spent five days with the church. We had a good Sabbath meeting, and the church asked me to preach the next week. To this request I agreed. The minister of the A. M. E. Church was present in our Sabbath meetings. He was so interested in the subject that he gave us the use of his church. We had a house full every night. Subjects concerning the Lord’s coming were taken up. There is a growing interest in time Johnston. The church there will sell one of its two lots, and use the money for putting up their building. We expect in a few days, with the Lord’s help, to begin the work of building the Johnston church.
The writer will be in Columbia for the next ten days, attending a canvassers’ institute, and conducting a ten-night meeting. We are also planning for a strong tent effort in Charleston, S. C., to begin about April 15. Our tent company will have a membership of six.
