Prospect in Illinois.

By B. F. Merritt

We have great reason to thank God and take courage in this part of the field. Never did we have more cheering prospects. The way is open for us to work in Illinois, and many willing hands are already taking hold. God has heard our prayers and is ready to bless every effort we put forth in his name.
I hail the tract enterprise with gladness. We have long felt the want of such means as this to push forward the work. It is being taken hold of with earnestness, and I have no doubt, if we faithfully do our part, God will make it prosper in our hands. It will meet with great success if the work be carried on in that way which pleases God. Brethren, let us all work, and try to please God well, by giving and doing.
“’Tis sweet to work for Jesus.”
