William Ingram LOI 1934-11
William Ingram, Baldwinton, Saskatchewan:
"Your letter to hand with enclosed gift. Kindly acknowledge my thanks for same. Meetings are holding out well. I’m very happy to say that most of the audience is composed of young folk in their late teens. That’s the right age to get them before the Word.
Already the snow has come, the season is indeed short here and the winter cold and long. It is really too early for snow yet and we trust it will go again and the weather brighten up ere the long winter sets in. Glad to report two won to Christ at meetings I had in the south of this province; this gives us encouragement and helps us to go ahead with renewed vigor
Sometimes we wonder why many more are not saved, but Abraham said, “Neither would they believe, though one rose from the dead’’. Eternity alone will reveal the results of the sowing of the good seed of the Word. Need is great here, both spiritual and material. Crops have been more or less a failure and to appearance a harder winter than ever is ahead. One feels sad indeed to see the farmers’ hard labors go for nothing; he plows and sows and the drought and grasshoppers or early frost or some other evil comes and destroys it all.
My visits and calls on isolated saints have been appreciated. Recently I called on a large sanitarium where I had the opportunity of conversing on eternal things with a large number of patients. Found many happy Christians among them. One leaves such a place thanking God for health and strength."
