Meetings at Monterey.

By James White

SABBATH and First-day, Aug. 22d and 23d, we were with the church in Monterey. Brn came in from a few towns around, and filled their new house of worship full. We spoke twice both days, in much weakness, however, in consequence of being much exhausted with labor and care before leaving home. But the Lord manifested himself powerfully both days. At the close of the last meeting most of the congregation wept freely. We then went to the water where nine were baptized.
Our hearts are strongly united with God's dear people in that vicinity. While we have tried to minister to them in spiritual things, they have freely ministered to us in carnal things. May the Lord help us and them so to strive together in the gospel, that a reward may finally be gained in the kingdom of God. J. W.
