A Church Building Needed in Lindsay
By Sadie Baker
LINDSAY.—This has been my field of labor since last October. The Lord has blessed in the work at this place. We have a Sabbath-school of thirty members, and others are interested. One hundred dollars has been paid as tithe. Fourteen thousand nine hundred and sixty pages of tracts have been given away, twenty-six health journals have been distributed among the doctors, thirty-seven copies of the Advocate among the public-school teachers, fifty-five copies of the Sentinel among the lawyers, and many copies of the Signs of the Times among the bankers. One hundred treatments have been given; forty of these were given at the city hospital by advice of the doctor. We have reached the point in our work here where we need a church building. A lot has been offered us for two hundred dollars, with a small house on it. At one of our Sunday evening Bible studies the building of a church was spoken of, and all responded favorably. Fifty dollars was pledged. We shall be able to raise about one hundred dollars. We shall then need one hundred dollars more to finish paying for the lot, before we begin building. Several have promised to help on the building. We have been holding our meetings in private houses, but our school is almost too large for home services; so we are asking for a church home. There are no wealthy ones among us, but we are expecting great things. There is a great deal of prejudice here, so we shall have to depend largely upon our own people and interested ones. We also need treatment rooms and a church school. May we not have the prayers of all who read the dear REVIEW, also their help? May the Lord’s work not be hindered, but make speedy progress until the message has gone to the uttermost parts of the earth. SADIE BAKER.
