Wyoming Camp-Meeting

By K. C. Russell

THIS meeting was held at Crawford, Neb., June 20-30. There was an excellent attendance of our people, and the evening services were well attended by the citizens of Crawford, as the camp was located in a beautiful park in close proximity to the town.

The preaching during the day was especially designed to build our people up spiritually, and in the evening the doctrines of the third angel's message were presented. The Holy Spirit attended the proclamation of the precious truths.

One important feature of this meeting was the organizing of the territory embracing the State of Wyoming and the counties of Nebraska and South Dakota bordering on Wyoming, which had been known as the Wyoming Mission field of the Central Union Conference, into a conference. The Lord has greatly blessed in developing the work in this field, which is already well equipped with new tents. They have a good surplus of funds as they launch their new conference, besides donating five hundred dollars to the General Conference for foreign missionary work.

Elder J. H. Wheeler, who has served for the past three years as superintendent of this field, was chosen president. We believe that prosperity will attend the work in this conference as the workers assume their new relations.

Besides the regular laborers of this field, there were in attendance Elder E. T. Russell, president of the Central Union Conference; Prof. C. C. Lewis, president of Union College; Dr. W. A. George, superintendent of the Nebraska Sanitarium; and Brother Glenn Benson.

There is a large number of young people in this conference in proportion to the constituency.
