Notes of Good Cheer

By W. A. S.

A Glad Work

THE note of joy that is sounded by many correspondents in speaking of the special fund is cheering. When any great enterprise is on, everybody who believes in it is anxious to have a part.

An Unexpected Way

A sister in Warner Lake, Ore., sends ten dollars with the word: “I wanted to make a donation to the $150,000 fund, but did not see the means to do it. However, there came to me quite unexpectedly this ten dollars; so I feel that it belongs to the Lord’s cause.”

How It Came

A sister in Takoma Park brought in four dollars, the amount of her pledge to the fund, her father having just sent her a check for five dollars as a Christmas present.

From Over Sea

A brother and his wife in Croydon, London, send a postal order for seventeen shillings ($4.14), saying: “We could not let this opportunity pass without sending our ‘mite’ for the $150,000 fund. We know the Lord will soon come, and when he does, we want to meet him with joy.”

From Manitoba

Brother Kirkland, of Manitoba, writes of the way the call strikes him across the Canadian border: “The Lord is again honoring us by giving us another opportunity as workers with him in spreading abroad the gospel of his kingdom. He is surely answering our prayers, bless his holy name. There is not a true Seventh-day Adventist who fails in this, and in the full belief that he will bless this new effort in the cause. There is still much to be done, but we know he will do a short work in the earth. Let us do our part, and the sum will be made up quickly, and we shall see greater things yet.”
