Monthly Meeting at Kirkville, N. Y.
By Elias Goodwin
Bro. White: I am requested to give an account of our monthly meeting at Kirkville. Considering the going, there were more present than was anticipated. There were a few from the following places: Oswego, Roosevelt, Liverpool, Pompey, Verona, and Brookfield. Bro. Andrews was with us, and preached the solemn truths of the present time. I hope we that were present will not let them slip, but retain them in our hearts, and bring forth fruit unto eternal life. On the whole, it was a good meeting; but the most joyful part of it was in praying for the sick, our sister Kenney, who had been considered very dangerous. While prayer was being offered, she shouted aloud and praised the Lord for what he had done for her. The next morning she arose and took breakfast with the family. "O that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and his wonderful works unto the children of men." We think the Lord is manifestly working for his people in central New York, for which we would give him praise. Our next monthly meeting is appointed at Roosevelt, Feb. 7th. It is expected that the sisters at the places of our monthly meetings will not make any extra preparation for entertaining those that come, as it is expected that those that attend will come provided to take care of themselves in the main.
