NEBRASKA

Raevalley.—I spent Jan. 1 with the Raevalley church. All observed the fast and we had meetings all day. Some good confessions were made. Seventeen testimonies were borne, and eleven arose for prayers. The sum of $4.87 was raised and offered as a New Year’s gift to the church at Oakland, Cal.; $11.00 was pledged to the Battle Creek Tabernacle, of which $2.30 was paid.
Meetings were continued on Sabbath and first-day, when some matters came up that threatened bad results. But God helped us to find the cause, and point out the wrongs of some, who heartily confessed; and brethren and sisters were more closely united than ever before. The spirit of love and union prevailed. Ten presented themselves for baptism and were received into the church. The ordinance of baptism was administered by the elder, James Garner. The Lord’s supper was celebrated in the evening. This church, now numbering twenty-seven, is in the best working condition it has ever been in. All felt that God had graciously surprised us with blessings.

Thayer, York County, Jan. 15.—Jan. 11, I commenced meetings in the Pleasant Hill school-house. The attendance and attention have been good. May the Spirit of God send conviction to hearts, and may truth prevail over error to the honor and glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
