Virginia

By B. F. Purdham

Lynchburg.— Since my last report I have labored most of the time in Lynchburg, and the blessing of the Lord has rested upon the work. I have held five regular services each week in our church, besides a number of services in West Lynchburg in following up the interest awakened at the camp meeting there the past summer. I am also doing all I can in house-to-house work, selling our good books, and taking orders for our papers.
December 6 I baptized two persons in the Christian Church baptistery, which was kindly furnished us for the occasion. Three others are now ready for baptism as soon as we can arrange for it. Two others have recently begun to keep the Sabbath, and many are deeply interested.
There is much work to be done here, and I am earnestly seeking the Lord to guide in it all to his own honor and glory. I am of good courage in the Master's cause, and wish to fill some humble place in the good work till it is finished and the sheaves gathered into the garner. Truly, the end of all things is near at hand, and earnest, faithful work should be done by all who have a part in the closing message.
B. F. Purdham.
