British Honduras

By H. C. Goodrich

BELIZE.—Two weeks ago last Sabbath five were baptized. We have had several meetings on the subject of baptism and the other ordinances. The last meeting was a real feast, a breaking up of the fallow ground. The Spirit of the Lord was present, and a number made confession of sins, some asking for rebaptism. The baptism was the most solemn occasion of the kind we have ever had here in Belize. It made a good impression upon all.

We are now taking seventy-five copies of The Signs, and could have disposed of more this week. A number are sold to regular customers, who seem much interested. This work was done almost entirely by the brethren and sisters. One, a convert not yet baptized, takes twelve copies each week. Thus the seed is being sown.

We are now planning to reach the interior of British Honduras, both by means of our publication; and by the living preacher. Thus far little has been done, except along the coast. At Corozal, in the north, two are asking for baptism. H. C. GOODRICH.
