Lake Union Conference and Mexico Workers

By Editor

It was our privilege recently to attend the ministerial institute held in Battle Creek, Mich., followed by the meetings of the Lake Union Conference. It was an excellent meeting from beginning to end. The Spirit of the Lord was with his people. The instruction which was given came with searching conviction and comforting assurance. The business of the conference passed off harmoniously. Elder Allen Moon, who for twelve long years has served the union as president, retired with honor, and with the confidence and love of all his associates, from that responsible position. Elder L. H. Christian was chosen president of the union. Brother Moon has served the cause of truth in the Lake Union Conference most faithfully during a very trying period in its history. His long and valuable experience will be conserved to the upbuilding of the work in other capacities as Providence may direct. A report of this meeting will be given soon.

MUCH anxious thought has been given during the last few days to the safety of our workers in troubled Mexico. It was therefore with much gratification and thankfulness that the following telegram was received from Elder G. W. Caviness: "Mexico City, April 29.—All workers are well. No apparent danger." We are grateful that during the trying revolutionary period through which Mexico has been passing during the last few months, the Master of the harvest has watched over his workers in that field. Let us continue to pray that God's protecting hand may still be over them, and that the winds of strife may be held in check in order that the gospel work may not be hindered.
