THE T. AND M. WORK IN DAKOTA.
By C. Frederickson
I WOULD like to say something to arouse to earnest action every member of the tract society in this district, which comprises Dakota Territory. And to those who are not members, but have received the light of present truth, let me say, Come, and join our army. God is willing to bless our efforts. And if we each do what we can, by the help of God something may be accomplished in the cause of present truth. Shall we let the winter pass without doing something for the good Master and for our fellow-men? God has abundantly blessed the efforts of the few workers in this territory, and to-day we can count about thirty Russian Sabbath-keepers in Dakota. This alone should arouse us to action; but this is not all. The General Conference sends two ministers to this territory this year; the labors of one of our brethren, who has gone out to proclaim the message, have been crowned with abundant success. Then can we not believe that the Lord has set his hand to the work in this new field? We hold our first district quarterly meeting at Swan Lake, Jan. 11, 12. Let us make it a success. Turn out in force. We expect all the ministers in Dakota to be there, also the librarians and the district secretary. The scattered brethren should attend, and make known the wants of the cause in their several localities. Come, all who are interested in this good work, and let us lay plans for the future. Come, praying that the Lord will meet with us, and direct us. We shall try to have a good supply of publications on hand. C. FREDERICKSON, Director.
