Reports from the Field.
By John G. Matteson
WE still continue our meetings in our hired house, but are at the same time quite busy fixing our new hall, which we expect to get ready in the course of two weeks. The work goes well, and we feel grateful to the Lord for his blessings. We meet many different minds here, and some are very deficient in Christian qualities. But we try to get helpers in this sacred work who are faithful, and whose hearts are in the work. A young brother from the western part of Norway is with me helping to mail the paper, working as colporteur, etc. He has graduated from the officers' school in Stockholm, Sweden, but has exchanged the king's sword for the sword of the Spirit. Another young brother who has preached some has come from the same vicinity to stay some time, to become more fully instructed in the truth, which he had embraced by reading. He is a Swede, and has a burden for his country. He labors with his hands, earning his own living. Last Sabbath he preached to us very acceptably. Bro. K. Brorsen is laboring faithfully in Denmark and gaining some souls here and there. The truth is slowly but steadily gaining ground in northern Jutland. April 29. JOHN G. MATTESON.
