Vermont Camp-Meeting

Appointments.

And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

Vermont Camp-Meeting.

After a careful examination of all the openings worthy of attention, the Camp-meeting Committee decide that the best place for our meeting this year is at Richmond, Vt., near the village, about one mile from Richmond station, on the same ground that we occupied a year ago.

We earnestly desire the labors of Bro. and sister White, and Bro. Geo. I. Butler, and we trust not to be disappointed. We invite our brethren from all parts of our Conference, and those from other Conferences, who can do so, to attend this meeting.

An effort will be made to have passengers coming by railway returned free, as in the past. Bring tents. We should have not less than thirty tents besides the large tent. Every family that is able, should have one to accommodate themselves and as many of their friends as they can induce to come to the meeting. Yet none should stay away because they cannot bring a tent, for such can have a place in the large tent. Come with your bedding, prepared to take care of yourselves. There will be a provision stand on the ground.

Brethren, come to this “feast of tabernacles” prepared to work for the Lord. Let us begin now to prepare our hearts to seek God. Our meeting will be held Aug. 14-19, according to appointment of General Conference Committee. LEWIS BEAN, H. N. AUSTIN, H. W. BARROWS, Vermont Conference Committee.

Vermont State Conference.

The Vermont State Conference will hold its next annual session at Richmond, Vt., in connection with the Vermont Camp-meeting, Aug. 14-19. We hope all will try to be on the ground at the commencement of the meeting and stay till it is closed. All the churches and unorganized companies within the limits of this Conference are invited to send delegates, and to report their standing as required by the constitution of the Conference. Systematic Benevolence should be paid up to July 1, 1872. Brethren and sisters, let us not do the work of the Lord negligently. LEWIS BEAN, H. N. AUSTIN, H. W. BARROWS, Vermont Conference Committee.

N. Y. and Pa. State Conference.

The N. Y. and Pa. Conference will hold its next annual session in connection with the N. Y. Camp-meeting to be held at Kirkville, N. Y., Aug. 6-12, 1872. We hope all the churches will immediately take the steps necessary to represent themselves fully at this meeting. Churches wishing admission should present their requests, and send their delegates. Let all the reports required by the constitution of the Conference be prepared by ministers, licentiates, and delegates. And especially we urge that every church in the Conference be prepared with its pledges for the coming year, by, at once re-arranging their S. B. Let all the churches represent themselves by delegates, if possible; if not, by letter. Delegates should be on the ground as early as Monday night. P. Z. KINNE, E. B. GASKILL, HARMON LINDSAY, N. Y. and Pa. Conference Committee.
