The Cumberland Camp-Meeting

By W. W. Williams

THE annual camp-meeting of the Cumberland Conference will be held at Knoxville, Tenn., September 6-16. The location of the camp is between Oakwood and Lincoln Park. If you come on the Southern Railroad, turn to the left as you come out of depot, and at the end of the bridge take Oakwood car leading to the right. All cars marked “Oakwood” will stop at the camp-ground. Tents will be furnished at reasonable rates for all who desire them. Let all who can, bring bedding. The grounds are all that could be desired as to elevation and shade.

Now, brethren and sisters, let nothing hinder you from being at this meeting. We want you here. God wants you here. Come filled with his Spirit, prepared to receive a blessing and to be a blessing to others. God is waiting to pour the Pentecostal shower upon his people. Shall we receive it? We expect to have Elder K. C. Russell, of Washington, and perhaps Elder Irwin with us; also Prof. J. E. Tenney, and several laborers of the Southern Union Conference. Events are taking place around us which tell that Christ is at the door, and waiting for his people to do the work that must be done before he returns.

Dear brethren, shall we do this work, and receive the “Well done”? or shall we neglect it, and be cast out as unprofitable servants? Satan is working in every way possible to deceive the elect; and that we may not be deceived and drop out by the way, we must keep up with the message. While Satan is working to bring in division among God’s people, God is working in love to save his people from the hour of temptation. O, let us be faithful in following the light that God has given us through the prophets and his servant! Come, brethren and sisters, to this meeting, and God will bless.

W. W. WILLIAMS, President.
