Grant Center, St. Clair Co., Mich.

By Joseph Harvey Waggoner

Soon after I reported from the above-named place, I left to attend a dedication at Quincy, where the brethren have erected a neat house of worship; thence I came to Battle Creek. At Quincy I received a letter from Bro. Lamson in which he said about thirty had decided in favor of the truth. In a late card he says: “Many more are favorable of whom we knew but little when you left. I now have a list of twenty for papers, and shall get more, as a number have not been seen who are most favorable.”

We consider this, in several respects, a very important point for labor, and there is much yet to be done in that neighborhood. Though the opposition was unusually violent, the Lord greatly blessed our labors, and the truth has many warm-hearted, intelligent friends there. The way seemed to open favorably in several directions, which will enable those who labor in that part of the State to be with the friends there frequently. We earnestly pray that the Lord will direct and bless.

J. H. Waggoner.
