The Winfield Sabbathkeepers

From Bro. Rust.

On my return from Conference, I went by the way of Winfield, Mich., and remained over Sabbath and first-day with the little band of commandment-keepers there, and attended some very interesting meetings with them. This is where Brn. Frisbie and Strong labored one year ago last spring. From their isolated condition they have had but little help of the ministering brethren since the first work was done. The enemy has been allowed to work and some have fallen away. But while there the melting spirit of the Lord was with us in all our meetings. Wrongs were acknowledged, faults confessed and hearts united. All seemed to be awaking to a sense of duty. Some are striving to live up to the Health Reform movement. They seem determind to press forward with renewed energy. They need help from the ministering brethren. About twelve or thirteen are keeping the Sabbath. May God bless these dear friends in their endeavors to live out the whole truth and make ready for Jesus coming. E. G. RUST. Chicago, Ills.
