To the Churches of the Wisconsin Conference.
By N. M. JORDON
As the time is drawing near for our yearly State Conference, let us as churches get our financial matters in good order preparatory for the same. Your secretary has not received any report the past Conference year from the following-named churches: Albany, Avon, Mauston, Poy Sippi, and Trempeleau. We ought to have received a quarterly report from each of those churches. Will the officers of those churches please forward me a report of their financial condition, and of moneys paid to ministers or to the Conf. Treasurer during the past Conference year? I have received but one report from a number of other churches. Will such please report in full. Also our ministers that have neglected to report quarterly, will they do so now? There has been but a very small part of the amount which the churches owed the Conference at the commencement of the present year, paid to the Conf. Treasurer as yet. As this debt goes to the General Conference, would it not be well for the churches to go to the State Conference prepared to pay it? If any of our churches should not know what their part of the debt is, I will inform them if they will write me. I think with a little exertion on the part of each church to pay their part of the debt, it will be paid this Conference year. N. M. JORDON.
Sec. Wis. Conference.
