Our Work and Workers

By Editor

WE wish it were possible in these few notes to give all the omens of progress in this world-wide work. Most of the results of evangelical work done is not reported. Nearly all who yield themselves to God do it one by one; but these do not come into our report. It is rarely that we notice a report less than three. One of the greatest evidences of God's time is seen in the many calls for laborers.

At Dogden, North Dakota, five were baptized on July 31.

SEVEN were recently baptized at Montgomery, Alabama.

H. W. OLIVER reports the baptism of eight persons at Roseburg, Oregon.

A CHURCH of twenty-one members has been organized at La Fayette, Indiana.

At Taswell, Indiana, about sixteen persons have taken their stand for the truth.

At Austell, Georgia, six souls have recently taken their stand for God's truth.

FIVE have accepted the truth as a result of meetings held near Kittanning, Pennsylvania.

SIX have taken their stand for the truth at Forsyth, Montana, the result of tent meetings.

At Orlando, Florida, July 17, eight were baptized and a church of twelve members organized.

JULY 16 at Birmingham, Alabama, sixteen persons were baptized, ten of these being young people.

THREE new converts are the result of meetings held in one of our Danish-Norwegian churches in Chicago, Illinois.

As a result of tent meetings conducted by C. G. Manns at Macon, Georgia, sixteen have begun to keep the Sabbath.

IN the Georgia conference seventy-five new Sabbath-keepers have added their names to the church-membership the past year.

BROTHER FAIRCHILD reports four new Sabbath-keepers at Midland, Maryland, and also has baptized five in that section recently.

A CHURCH of forty members was organized at Pensacola, Florida. Before organization they had built a neat church without aid from the mission.

At Ocala, Florida, tent meetings have been conducted resulting in the organization of a church of eleven members, and eight following the Lord in baptism.

As a result of tent meetings conducted by J. W. McCord and M. H. St. John in Los Angeles, California, between forty-five and fifty persons have accepted the truth.

GEO. H. SKINNER met two French Canadian families who had never seen a minister of our faith, but who had kept the Sabbath for six years. It is God's time to work.

At Benedict, North Dakota, eleven were baptized July 24, and the same evening, with ten others were organized into a church, together with twenty-nine who were already there, making a church of fifty members.

BROTHER F. W. WESTPHAL, in Chile, baptized eighteen at Gorbea, two at Bajo Imperial, and two at Carahue, and has also organized three new churches, one at Lancohe, one at Temuco, and another of the conference workers.

ONE of our most valuable workers in India, Elder J. C. Little, died recently of cholera. He was in charge of the Bengali work in East Bengal. In the death of this earnest, faithful, self-sacrificing laborer, India sustains a great loss. His grieving parents in California and the lonely wife and children in India will have the sympathy and prayers of God's people.
