PROVIDENCE, VA.

By G. W. Woods

I preached here four evenings. On Sabbath morning, everybody was at work as usual. But as God has promised to dwell in his house, I could go and meet him there. I went and earnestly prayed that God would give me some precious souls to attend the next Sabbath meeting. He heard my prayer. I left the house strengthened.

I preached every evening the next week, and on Sabbath morning I again went to the house of God, and found twenty present. After a short discourse, nine bore testimony in favor of the seventh-day Sabbath, and expressed a determination to obey God in keeping his commandments. We had a good meeting.

I hope God will give me many precious souls for my hire, and that I may meet them at the coming of the Lord.
