Flint Camp-Meeting

By B. F. Stureman; M. Shepard

Michigan

FLINT.—The camp-meeting recently held in the East Michigan Conference was one of the best ever held in the State. It being thought that a tent should be pitched and a short course of lectures held, we held the first meeting on Friday evening, September 11, and the last meeting on Sunday evening, October 4. The attendance was good throughout, and the Lord truly blessed these few meetings. From the start, we were led out to preach the message, and the Lord surely helped us to give it clear and plain. We were made to see that the old-time method of preaching the truth is the best way, as it had its effect on the hearts of many who attended the meetings. Thus far twelve have begun the observance of the Sabbath, and others are deeply interested, of whom we have much hope. We received $15.10 in donations, and raised $17.50 to pay for three thousand of the tract, “What Do These Things Mean?” We expect to make a thorough canvass of the city, and leave one of these tracts at every home.
The camp-meeting made a very favorable impression on the minds of the people of the city, and surely the Lord came near and blessed. Our people returned to their homes with better courage and greater determination to work for the Lord.
