Donations for the Memorial Church, Washington, D. C.
By James S. Washburn
The dedicatory services will be held in May. The definite date will be announced later. God has wonderfully helped in the work of establishing this first memorial of the third angel's message in the capital city. It has helped the credit of our work in Washington greatly. The amount for necessary alterations is almost made up. We believe this work will be finished, and that when the one hundred thousand dollar list of donations for establishing the Washington sanitarium, school, and General Conference offices is published, there will be a large surplus for that fund. The hour has struck, the time has come, to arise and build free of all debt. Who will help to make this possible now? Donations previously reported, $9,616-40.
