Our Work and Workers.

During Pastor Santee's recent visit to the church at Santa Rosa, five were baptized.

Brother C. J. Buhalts reports three conversions to the truth at Carberry, Missouri.

Pastor R. C. Porter is having a good interest in a revival effort at Hamilton, Missouri.

Three souls were baptized and added to the church in San Francisco, February 16.

Pastor Christianson and wife, of the Upper Columbia Conference, have gone to Utah to make that their field of labor.

Our first-day offering to foreign missions for the year ending Dec. 31, 1900, shows an increase of $23,000 over the preceding year.

A good revival work is in progress in Los Angeles, California, under the labors of Brethren Owen and Healey. Fifteen were baptized recently.

There were recently baptized in Healdsburg thirty-eight dear souls, largely youth and children. Many of these were attending the school. The special instruments used of the Lord were Elders A. G. Daniells, Taylor, and Cady.

In a recent issue of the New York Indicator, Pastor G. B. Thompson relates the following interesting incident:—

“Recently, while in Buffalo, I met Sister Simmons, a Sabbath-keeping missionary from the island of St. Lucia, West Indies, who related this incident: A ship from Calcutta was wrecked near the island of St. Lucia. From the wreck, a book, ‘Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation,’ was picked up, water-soaked, and not of much value. A gentleman read it with intense interest, and began the observance of the Sabbath. God only knows how and by whom this book was placed on board that ship, and will reward accordingly. Let us sow the seed; for we know not which shall prosper, whether this or that.”
