Changes

"We have had quite a happy time this summer, the Lord has very graciously encouraged our hearts by giving us to see His hand in blessing and help at both Camp Berea and Pine Bush, and then in tent meetings here in Maine. We hope in the will of the Lord to have cottage meetings in several districts this fall and winter, as well as giving a little help here at Westbrook. We do covet the earnest prayers of the Lord's dear people for blessing in this needy state."

"There is a good ear for the Gospel, and in Key West, [[Florida]], a number have been saved recently. Just now a good work in the Gospel is going on in West Palm Beach. Enjoyed visiting the Christians in Brookhaven, [[Georgia]], where brother Gordon Reager has labored so faithfully for years. They have a fine group of young people here, and they have a ready ear for the Word. Witnessed an interesting baptism recently in Westbrook, Maine, when a mother, her son, and daughter, all followed the Lord in this ordinance. The Lord is indeed blessing the needy state of Maine through the persevering efforts of His servants. Bro. Clark McClelland is now spending all his time in Maine. Bre. James McCullough, Samuel Rea, Robert McCracken, Jr., have been helping in this needy state, and the Lord has been giving real blessing. This is really pioneer work." * LOI 1949-1: David Lawrence (Centerville, [[Iowa|IA]]: "John Newton and I went East and visited a few assemblies here and there; among them Westbrook, Maine, a small but warm-hearted gathering of the Lord's people. We spent two weeks in Brooklyn, [[New York|N.Y.]], to welcome my parents, who have just returned from Wales. We had meetings in a few assemblies in the [[New York]] area. On the way home we were at Logansport, [[Indiana]] for two nights, ministering to the Lord's people. Last week we went to be the [[Elm Springs Bible Hall, KS|Elm Springs]] (Kansas) Conference."
