THE NEBRASKA CAMP-MEETING AGAIN.
By Eugene W. Farnsworth
We wish to say a few words more respecting our camp-meeting. This will be the most important meeting ever held in Nebraska; for as the work enlarges in that part of the field, these meetings become more important. We therefore look for the largest gathering of our people we have ever had there. The wants of the T. and M. work will be largely considered, and in view of this we want to see every director in that part of the Conference at the meeting. We want to see the elders of every church there; and if there are persons who wish lectures given in their neighborhood this winter, we want them there. If there are those who have become discouraged and cold in the work, you, of all others, should be there; and to this class I especially appeal, because you seldom see the necessity of attending such meetings. If you feel indifferent about attending the meeting, there is cause of alarm in your case, and that indifference is a sufficient reason why you should be there. After you have attended one or two meetings of this kind, your indifference will wear away, and you will see more clearly where you stand. Then there are those who feel that they enjoy the blessing of God; to such we would say, You are absolutely needed there, and I know it will not be necessary for me to say much to induce you to come. Let the elders of our churches and the directors of our T. and M. Society see that all are there that can possibly get there. Remember the time and place—Oct. 4, Fremont, Dodge Co., Neb. Let every one be on the ground the day before, Wednesday, and let none stay away for lack of tents; for a place will be provided. Only bring your bedding. We invite all our ministers in the western part of our Conference, who can consistently leave the meetings they may be holding, to be present with us. We wish to make some calculations for our winter's work. Bro. Nicola, President of the T. and M. Society, will be there. As the time for this meeting draws near, let us earnestly seek God’s blessing and help. I am anxious that this meeting should be instrumental in imparting new life and zeal to the hearts of our people. We expect God will be with us by his Spirit, and this will be sufficient. So we can only add, Let none stay away.
