Iowa: Public Services and Baptisms at Cedar Rapids
By G. W. Anglebarger
Cedar Rapids.—About three months ago my wife and I came to Cedar Rapids. For many years I have felt anxious for my brothers and sisters in the flesh who live in Iowa. None of them knew much of the truths of the Third Angel’s Message. I felt impressed that the Lord wished us to come here and tell them about the soon coming of our blessed Saviour. Since coming, I have been busy holding public services, visiting, canvassing, and giving Bible readings, thus seeking to bring the people to Christ. I praise the Lord that He is blessing in the work. Sabbath, December 28, twelve precious souls united with the church. Among this number was one of my own dear sisters. Our meetings are well attended. Many are deeply interested. We pray that God will turn their hearts also fully to His truth. The church here is very much encouraged.
