MAINE

By J. B. Goodrich

From March 9 to May 6, 1900, I have been holding meetings with the church on Cliff and Long Islands.
From the first, the Lord came near to us, and helped in our meetings. Some, who had become discouraged, and given up the truth, returned unto the Lord, the shepherd and bishop of their souls. New ones came out and began to keep the Sabbath on both islands, and others are convinced that we have the truth. May God help them to obey.
May 5 and 6 Elders H. C. Basney and S. J. Hersum were present to “preach the word.” Our meeting was free, and it was good to be there. Eight were buried with Christ “by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead, by the glory of the Father,” even so they are to walk in newness of life. One of them was the first fruit of the Portland Open Door Mission. Twelve united with the Cliff Island church. We thank God for the good work that has been done. May it still continue.
