The Montana Camp-Meeting

By K. C. Russell

The Montana camp-meeting was held in Helena, Mont., June 13-23. The attendance of our people was considered very good, and there was a fair attendance of outsiders at the evening services.

The business of the conference passed off very pleasantly and satisfactorily. The Lord has blessed in the work of the Montana Conference during the past year in every department, especially in the sale of our literature.

The meeting was blessed with the presence of the Holy Spirit, which was indicated by the converting power of God that prevailed at the meeting in not only reclaiming the backsliding ones, but in reaching those who had never yielded their hearts to God.

Elder Martin was again unanimously chosen president of the conference for another year, and Brethren Stewart Kime and W. H. Holden were ordained to the gospel ministry.

The laborers in attendance at the meeting, besides the regular conference workers, were Elder A. J. Breed, vice-president of the North Pacific Union; Elder H. W. Decker, financial agent of the North Pacific Union; and the writer.

This was the fourth and last camp-meeting that I attended in this union. I most thoroughly enjoyed my visits to the different conferences, and believe that the cause of present truth has loyal and self-sacrificing supporters in this part of the great harvest-field. We shall expect to learn of many recruits from time to time who will respond to the calls that come from the needy fields in the regions beyond. We believe, with the Walla Walla College as a main educational institution in this union, with the various intermediate schools as feeders, that we have reason to expect great things under the blessing of God.
