Our Work and Workers.

By Editor

AT a general meeting at Tunesassa, N. Y., seven candidates were baptized June 10.

TEN new members have been added to the church at Brenham, Texas, thru the labors of Brethren C. W. and B. E. Miller.

ON Sunday, June 3, Brother W. H. Randle baptized four candidates at Jack’s River, Jamaica. Eight others were baptized by him June 17.

AT Sugar Run, Pa., where Brother E. W. Durkee has been laboring for some months, eleven have accepted present truth, eight being baptized May 21.

FIFTEEN responded to a call for those who desired baptism in the church at Mankato, Minn., at a recent Sabbath meeting. Twelve of these are young people.

SISTER E. E. PARLIN, a Bible worker in San Francisco, reports that eight of her readers have accepted the truth and are keeping the commandments of God.

WALLA WALLA COLLEGE (Wash.) closed a successful year’s work May 17. The president of the college, Prof. M. E. Cady, delivered the address to the class, which numbered twenty-one.

“SABBATH, June 6, the Lord was very near in all the services of the day. Eleven good souls were baptized at the close of the morning service,” says Elder G. W. Anglebarger, of Denver, Colo.

REPORT has been received of a lecture on “What Do These Things Mean?” by Brother Henry Wm. Rose, at Minneapolis, Minn., May 2, before a large audience. Animated criticism and discussion were provoked by the lecture.

BRETHREN E. J. DRYER and E. C. Townsend write from Buffalo, N. Y.: “May 30 we had the pleasure of baptizing seven more precious souls. There are at least as many more who we expect will be ready for baptism in a few weeks.”

“THE Lord is surely blessing the work in this city. Friday, May 29, seven earnest souls were baptized by Elder Westworth at Ocean Beach and welcomed into church fellowship.” So says Atlantic Union Gleaner, reporting work at New London, Conn.

“SABBATH, May 16, six students from the college and church school were baptized, and Sabbath, May 23, seven more from the college signified their desire to walk in newness of life by the ordinance of baptism,” says Columbia Union Visitor, of the work in Mt. Vernon, Ohio.

INDIA is receiving the light of truth. Brother J. L. Shaw writes: “Our literature is being widely scattered. We are now issuing tracts, papers, and pamphlets in Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Burmese, Tamil, and English, and are finding that small pamphlets can be sold even to the poor. Those who earn only five or ten cents a day purchase them.”

WRITING of the work at Rosehill, N. Dak., Brother C. J. Kunkel writes: “One year ago there were only six souls holding up the light of truth at this place. Now there is a company of twenty-nine. Sabbath, May 23, was a good day, for the Lord came very near by His Spirit. On Sunday six souls were buried with their Lord in baptism by Brother Chas. Leer.” Brethren Leer and Wm. Westland sowed the seed for this harvest of souls.
