Quarterly Meetings for California.

Sabbath and Sunday, January 6, 7, 1883, are the days appointed for our church and T. and M. quarterly meetings, when every member of each church should attend. Those who cannot be present at these meetings should report by letter, that all may be heard from. All should bring in their tithes for the last quarter, or send them to the treasurer of the church, before the report is made up.
District quarterly meetings will be held January 13, 14, at places designated by the directors, who we hope will be present, and see that all is being done that can be to advance the work and encourage the members of the society in their district, and see that they are supplied with publications and periodicals.
The work will not prosper unless each member feels the burden, and puts forth efforts in harmony with the light he has received. We hope that the blessing of the Lord may attend these meetings, and that we may have a good report from a large majority of the members of the society. M. C. ISRAEL, Vice-President T. and M. Society.
The district quarterly meeting for district No. 1 will be held at Healdsburg, Sabbath and first-day January 13, 14. The first meeting will be held on the evening of the Sabbath (Friday night), at 7 o’clock. It is expected that each church in the district will be represented at this meeting. Preparation will be made to entertain all from a distance. Come prepared to remain over the two days, as important matters pertaining to the work will be considered.
We expect to have the labor and counsel of Sr. White at this meeting, and hope to have one of the best meetings ever held by our people. Come praying that God by his Spirit will meet with us, and fit us up to act better our part in his service. WM. INGS, Director.
