Missouri and Kansas

It was voted by the General Conference Committee last June that I make the North Missouri Conference my field of labor, and it was also recommended by the North Missouri Conference Committee that I take up work in Kansas City, Mo., and at the same time act as pastor of the First Church.
I found in that great city a neat church building, located in a good neighborhood, and gathering there from Sabbath to Sabbath a band of loyal worshipers. The Lord blessed the efforts put forth there, and as a result, some dear souls took their stand for the truth. Nine were baptized and united with the First Church, and some united with the Second Church. I was able by God's help to awaken an interest in two places in the city. These interests are now looked after by Dr. A. E. Field.
I closed my work in Kansas City, Sabbath and Sunday, November 13 and 14, preparatory to leaving for my new field of labor in the Kansas Conference,having been called by the Kansas Conference Committee to take the superintendency of the Northwest District, made vacant by the removal of Elder C. E. Peckover to Jamaica.
I have been in my new district since November 17, and the Lord is blessing in this part of his vineyard to the salvation of souls. We are now in the midst of the week of prayer, and as far as I have heard, all the Sabbath-keepers in the Northwest District are receiving great blessings from the Lord.
The only legitimate reason that any one can give for being a Seventh-day Adventist, is to help give the third angel's message to the world, and thus prepare a people for translation in this generation.
M. G. HUFFMAN.
