My pen can scarcely tell of the goodness of God to me during the last three or four months while I have labored in this vast field. On every hand I find those who are hungering for the truth as it is in Jesus.
Last year it was my privilege to labor in Buenos Ayres for a few weeks, in company with other brethren. From there I went to General La Madrid, several hundred miles south of Buenos Ayres, where a missionary was interested in the Third Angel’s Message. I labored with him for a few days, holding meetings in the evening and conversing with him after school hours. He finally took hold of different points of truth, and is now walking in harmony with us. He is an earnest Christian, rejoicing always in the Lord, and doing all he can to bring those about him to the gospel. A woman in the same place had been keeping the Sabbath for several years, but had not received other doctrinal points. I studied God’s word with her, and as a result, she, too, is one with us in present truth. Another person began the observance of the Sabbath; and thus there is a small company here to shed abroad the light of the gospel in this isolated part of the earth. I next went to San Antonio, in the Chaco Santafecino. I preached in this place for one week, and four persons were converted. Two of these were baptized.
A month ago it was my privilege to go to Malbertina, province of Cordoba, and visit our brethren. I found them all of good courage, battling against error, and receiving much persecution, but happy in Jesus. I preached to them, studying the Bible morning, noon, and night, and thus our souls were watered with heaven’s dew. Two young men, who were converted during my visit, were baptized, and received into the church.
So it is all over the field: the latter rain is falling, and souls are coming out from error’s night to the resplendent light of the Third Angel’s Message. I see victory all along the line, and the blessing of God at every step. I realize more than ever to-day the great love the Lord has shown us, in calling us to be His ambassadors to a dying world, a world knowing not the eternal truths now committed to us for the world. My prayer is that God may help us each to well represent Him as we go in and out among the people; so that worldlings may truly discern that we are verily “sons of God” amid this corrupt generation; and that they may understand that we have “learned of Jesus.”
