Reports from Michigan Churches

In company with Brother Fred Butcher I attended the general meeting at Hazleton, Mich., January 25-28. The meeting was well attended. A good spirit prevailed, and many testified to having received a rich blessing during the meeting. On the Sabbath the Holy Spirit touched hearts, and eleven children and youth gave themselves to the Lord. Most of them have been attending the church school, which is taught by Sister Lena Fletcher. The hearts of parents were made to rejoice as they saw their children starting for the kingdom. The needs of the different branches of the cause were presented, and much interest was shown in the church school work. Ten subscriptions were secured for the Missionary Magazine.
January 29 I came to Owosso, and held one meeting. At this place nearly all the young people have accepted the Saviour. Thirteen started during the week of prayer. This was largely the result of work done in the church school, which is taught by Brother and Sister Washburn.
January 31 I met with the church in Detroit. This church has been without a regular pastor for some time, but they are endeavoring to hold up the light of truth, and find that they are being blessed individually by so doing.
At Pontiac the attendance at our meetings is increasing, but the work moves rather slowly. This town is having a boom, and the minds of most persons are absorbed in the world. Some are on the point of decision, and we would ask the prayers of all who love present truth for the work in this place. Sisters Kiep and Tyte have several interested Bible readers.
I am of good courage. — M. C. GUILD.
