Revival Meetings at Plains, Montana

By R. D. Quinn; W. D. Emery

Montana

PLAINS.— We arrived at Plains about the middle of July, and at once erected our tent, and began meetings. The special power that is just now attending the third angel’s message has been with us from the very opening.

A growing attendance and an ever-increasing interest have characterized the work, until at present we are in the midst of a revival which is shaking this country, and bringing out a people to stand on the eternal principles of truth and righteousness.

The work here thus far has been so manifestly under the direction of the great Shepherd of the sheep that we will not at this writing attempt to draw any conclusions as to the outcome. A goodly company have already taken their stand, and we firmly believe that the near future will see a church organized in this place.

“There shall be delay no longer” means business, brethren; God has put his hand to the work as we have not seen it before. “A crisis is right upon us. We must now by the Holy Spirit’s power proclaim the great truths for these last days.” “Invisible armies of light and power are attending the servants of God, and there is at this time “no measure to the usefulness of those who are willing to undergo the necessary discipline,” “and to become the hands of heavenly instrumentalities to work out the purposes of God in the earth.” Courage is the keynote now. Hasten, O hasten, to the work.

R. D. QUINN, W. D. EMERY.

[Later word from Elder Quinn states that eleven were baptized at Plains. Brethren Quinn and Gosner are now conducting tent meetings at Hamilton.]
