Western Washington Conference
By E. L. Stewart
The Lord is blessing the work in this conference. At the close of our State camp-meeting at Centralia, it was thought best to continue the meetings, and as a result fourteen souls have taken hold of the truth. Elder T. H. Watson has done most of the preaching, Elder W. C. Ward has had charge of the work, and Brother Dodge has been their helper. The ordinances were celebrated last Sabbath, and it was a most solemn occasion. Five souls were baptized, and fourteen united with the church. A few others are on the point of decision. The conference was divided into four districts, with a minister and a corps of workers in charge of each district, one in the north, one in the south, and two in the central portion of the conference. Four tent companies are in the field,—one at Centralia; one at Kelso, with Elder W. F. Martin in charge; one at Whatcom, with Elder W. W. Sharp in charge; and one at Ballard, with Elder Wollekar in charge. We are planning to hold a local camp-meeting at Whatcom to follow up the tent effort. We also have a State canvassing agent and an agent to work in the interest of our periodicals. The summer school for church-school teachers has just closed, at which nine church-school teachers have spent several weeks. The prospect is good for quite a number of church schools to be held in various parts of the conference. E. L. STEWART,
Pres. W. W. Conference.
