By Frances L. Sawyer

From Sister Sawyer.

BRO. WHITE: I was first brought to the knowledge of the truth under the labors of Bro. Bates, a year ago last August; and I feel to thank the Lord that he permitted me to see the light of the third angel's message, and gave me a heart to receive it. I believe that this is the last message of mercy to this wicked, sinful world, and I desire to heed its warning voice by keeping all God's commandments and the faith of Jesus, that I may have a right to the tree of life, and enter through the gates into the city. I feel myself very unworthy to be numbered among God's chosen people; but Jesus is worthy, and it is through his worthiness I expect to be saved.

There are five of us, besides children, that meet together on the Sabbath, and we feel that it is good for us to meet together to serve the Lord, yet we greatly desire that some of the messengers may come here, that the weak may be strengthened, others encouraged, and things set in order. We believe that good may be done here, and others raised up to keep God's holy Sabbath. Our prayer is that some one may come soon.

Yours desiring eternal life.
