South-Western Missouri and Kansas.
By J. G. Wood
I HAVE just returned from a visit to the church at Nevada City, which I found in a growing condition. I visited this church last fall; it then numbered nine members. I preached for them about two weeks. Bro. Rogers was with me part of the time. While there I baptized five, and nine united with the church. On my return, I found seven more had taken a stand with them since my last visit. This time I held four meetings with them. At our last meeting two more came forward to identify themselves with God's people; and others acknowledge the truth and will, we hope, unite with them soon. May the Lord help them to be faithful. I have also given a course of lectures in Crawford Co., Kan., six miles south-west of Girard. This is a new field. Two were keeping the Sabbath here when I commenced, and they have lived here some time under much discouragement. Four more embraced the truth, and now rejoice in it. Others are investigating. I have obtained five subscribers for the REVIEW, and one for the Instructor. May this little company so live that they may exert an influence in favor of the cause of truth. I expect to visit them again soon, and then go to a new field of labor. I want to be useful in winning souls to Christ. My post-office address is Nashville, Barton Co., Mo. J. G. Wood.
