North Pacific Conference.
By Chas. L. Boyd
Lynden, W. T.—I am glad to be able to report a company of Seventh-day Adventists here in this remote corner of the United States. While here last winter, we organized a Tract society, and a Sabbath-school, and now a church organization is partly completed. One of the brethren is about erecting a building, and proposes to make a room suitable for meeting purposes. This will be of great advantage to this society. Such a room will be more inviting to outsiders than a private residence. I want to say to the brethren in this Conference: We have great reason to thank God and take courage. While those who have been working in the vineyard of the Master are but few in number, God has blessed their efforts, and souls are coming to Christ in his appointed way. We have now four churches waiting to be received into the Conference at its next session. Now, brethren, what are you doing to advance the cause you have espoused, and to save precious261souls from "the wrath to come"? I know some of you are doing well in paying tithes, and thus are purchasing seed for the minister to sow; but without slacking your efforts here, can you not take some seed in your own hand, and go forth scattering it with weeping, and be cheered and encouraged with the hope of coming again bringing your sheaves with you? See Ps. 126: 6. You will see that the going forth is attended with weeping; but listen, the sower is returning with rejoicing, bringing the precious fruit of his labors. The SIGNS OF THE TIMES, from whose pages the hallowed light of present truth is so clearly reflected, should be in every family in the land. Are you willing to come up to the Judgment as matters now stand, with no more of your neighbors saved? I hope a special move will soon be made in this direction, the plans for which may be made at our soon-coming camp-meeting. Let every one who loves the truth seek to be present, and to help with prayers and counsel, and be helped in return by others. CHAS. L. BOYD.
