Brighter Prospects in Maine

By C. M. S.

THE writer had the privilege of attending the Maine camp-meeting through almost its entire session, and greatly enjoyed with the brethren and sisters of his native State the feast of good things which the Lord had prepared for his people there.

There is certainly progress in Maine; and a new spirit of hope and courage and determination has taken hold of the people in that State. The report that a large number had joined their ranks during the past year was welcome news, and cheered the hearts of all. The report that over $6,000 worth of our literature had been sold in the State since the last report was rendered, was also a source of inspiration, and will cause the conference officers to labor with greater zeal and courage than before to make large reports of this nature regular features of their annual gatherings.

There was manifest a spirit of hearty response whenever evidences were presented to show that the culmination of our work and of our hopes is drawing near. The convicting and converting power of God was clearly manifest in the meetings, and those in attendance felt richly repaid for the time spent at this gathering. We believe the past year has demonstrated that God is ready to do great things for the progress of his cause in Maine.
