West Virginia Camp-Meeting

“The camp-meeting is one of the most important agencies in our work. It is one of the most effective methods of arresting the attention of the people, and reaching all classes with the gospel invitation.”—“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. VI, page 31. We are all anxious to see the gospel given to the world in this generation. Our annual camp-meeting, which will be held in Parkersburg, on Seventh and Mark streets, Sept. 28 to Oct. 8, 1911, will be an excellent opportunity for our people to receive spiritual strength, and the blessing received will enable them to do more efficient work for the Master.
We have the promise of a number of General and union conference workers at this meeting. Just now is a very solemn time, when the glorious gospel of Christ is doing its finishing work in the earth. Just now the souls who do not have a firm hold on God are being sifted out. Just now the powers from beneath are working mightily; the prince of darkness knows that his time is short, and he is making a mighty effort to ensnare souls. But while Satan is working so energetically, the power of God is coming down from heaven in great measure, and miracles are being wrought by the Holy Spirit in changing the hearts and minds of men. The third angel’s message is warning the world, and soon those who are sealed with the seal of the living God will stand on the sea of glass before the throne. Brethren and sisters, you can not afford to miss this camp-meeting.
As our meeting will be held late in the season, we would advise all to live in rooms, which can be rented for about the same price as tents. Any who would prefer tents, however, may secure them by ordering at once. A large tent will be pitched for a dining-room, and meals will be served at a reasonable rate on the European plan. The meetings will be held in the new brick church. Order all rooms and tents at once from S. F. Ross, 1600 Andrew St., Parkersburg, W. Va.
