To the P. E. and members of the third quarterly conference, greeting;
We have during this quarter organized two Epworth Leagues, a junior and a
senior. The senior chapter owing to a lack of experienced workers and on account
of the absence of the preacher in charge, was a child of short life. The junior
chapter, under the able leadership of Miss Emma ORR, is doing excellent work.
Our children enjoy the work very much and take hold with an energy that is
delightful.
We have three Sunday Schools on the charge and the quality of work that they are
doing is unusually good considering the like of equipment. The officers and
especially the superintendents are worthy of commendation.
We are preaching to the children and talking to them personally in regard their
soul salvation. As a result of these services and this personal work, many are
being gathered into the fold of Christ.
