Oklahoma Camp-Meeting

By G. F. Haffner

THE Oklahoma camp-meeting will be held in El Reno this year, August 13-23. This is about the most central place in the conference, and is easily reached on the railroad from any point in both Indian and Oklahoma Territories. It is quite a large place, in which scarcely any work has ever been done. Brethren, let us come with the missionary spirit, to do what we can for that city. The people there need to hear the message, and let us give it to them. We will try to have a tent company there a few weeks before the camp-meeting begins, and if necessary will leave one after the camp-meeting. We should not only seek a blessing for ourselves at these gatherings, but be a blessing to some one else; for this is the best way to receive a blessing.

We hope to get the usual cheap rates from the railroad association, and when we hear from them, we will give notice concerning the same. We also expect good help from the General Conference, besides our own ministers. But let us all pray that the Lord will meet with us, and give us his Spirit and blessing, which we so much need.
