M. ENOCH

By M. Enoch

Bermuda

Though we can not report great progress, the Lord is blessing the efforts put forth publicly and privately. There was a fair attendance at our last quarterly meeting. The ordinances were celebrated, and the Lord seemed very near. Five were received into full membership. One of these was a Portuguese brother, who accepted the truth through Elder Morrow’s efforts about a year ago. A man and wife, with two others, accepted the truth last fall during Brother Morrow’s tent effort. Another accepted the Sabbath through reading the Caribbean Watchman, sold her by a brother. This sister’s husband and six children are now keeping the Sabbath. The other was a sister who was led to the truth by one of our sisters who went to her house to sell dry goods. These three sisters were baptized in the baptistry in the new church, Brother Morrow officiating. They were brought to the light of the Sabbath in three different ways, yet all rejoice together in the same blessed hope. This emphasizes the fact that God’s Spirit can work through different consecrated channels, and that the work of bringing souls to the knowledge of this truth is not dependent on any one human agency.

Elder Morrow has now pitched the tent in another neighborhood, where several seem interested. Sister Morrow’s school for little children of Sabbath-keepers was carried on quite successfully last winter and spring, but we need some one to help in this work. As far as health permits, my time is taken up partly with my business and writing articles for one of the newspapers whose columns are opened to us. I am also holding meetings Sunday evenings at our church in Hamilton.

Thus the work is onward in Bermuda. We are all in harmony with the denomination, and have the fullest confidence in the leaders of this work. The spirit of prophecy as believed by this people is

most sacredly accepted by all. We thank God for his kindness in moving upon the hearts of our General Conference brethren to feel such an interest for these islands. We greatly need the earnest prayers of God’s people for the success of the work in this field.
