BURNSIDE, WIS.

By J. D. Mulhollen

WE held our quarterly meeting, Oct. 6. The Spirit of the Lord was present. Eld. Downer was with us, and expounded to us the word of truth, which encouraged us, and caused our hearts to rejoice. Sunday, after the forenoon exercises, two presented themselves for baptism. These young persons went down into the water to be buried in the likeness of Christ’s death, and to arise to newness of life. God bless the young who are willing to break away from the allurements of this world and follow the Lamb of God.

We hope this meeting may be lasting in its results; and that we may be perfected in love, established in the faith, strengthened of God to endure hardness as good soldiers of Christ; and that when Jesus shall come to gather his guests to the marriage supper, we may there meet the ancient worthies and the people of God, and realize that this glad meeting will never be broken up. We ask the prayers of God’s people for our growth in grace.
