Panama City, Canal Zone
By B. E. Connerly
Our work in Panama City is onward. We can surely give a Joshua report of what the Lord has been pleased to do here. We organized a church of sixteen members in January, and I am sure that the secret of our success since that time has been that these members have all had a spirit to work for others by distributing the literature and visiting among the people. Besides the sales of the large books by our canvassers, some of the brethren have devoted a part of their time to selling the small books and tracts, and even the children sell papers. The sale of periodicals has now reached more than seven hundred monthly in five languages. These publications are a great factor for good. At present we are at work with the Temperance Instructor—a splendid help in the temperance cause. Sabbath, March 30, we baptized six converts, and there are several others who will soon be baptized. Our Sabbath-school now numbers thirty-seven members, and there is a splendid interest in the work of the young people's society. Pray for us, that we may do a thorough and speedy work in this great city.
