MORGES, SWITZERLAND.

By D. T. Bourdeau

We are cheerful and hopeful in God. We are getting where we can labor. Obstacles that have been in our way, such as sickness in our family, etc., are being removed. I am now in the midst of the Sabbath question. The congregations are not large, but those who attend are deeply interested. Several are under deep conviction, and some are deciding to keep all the commandments. Some are meeting serious difficulties, as they belong to the first class in society. Let us not forget them. I am also succeeding well in obtaining subscribers for LES SIGNES.
From this point doors will be opened to other fields. Some persons of influence in this place are anxious that we should visit their relatives and friends at other points, some of whom are English. This is entirely new ground. There was not a commandment-keeper here when we came. We felt the necessity of moving prudently and seeing that the ground was prepared by the tender, converting spirit before presenting truths requiring great sacrifice, lest we should labor in vain.
We feel it is a great privilege to labor for the salvation of perishing men. Energetic labor in this precious cause brings hope, the blessing of God, and health of body and mind. D. T. BOURDEAU.
