Since being home I was at the Thanksgiving Conference in Waynesboro Chapel, Pa., and a week end at Blemar Gospel Hall, N.J. The next week end I will be with the brethren at Chillum Heights Assembly. They are not in their new building yet, in a suburb of Washington. Then for several weeks I will be ministering around home area."
