Autobiography of an American healing evangelist
CHAPTER XLIV
WOODWORTH-ETTER MEETINGS AT MEMPHIS, TENN
(Copied from “The Way of Faith,” Dec. 18, 1913.)
The Lord is wonderfully working here in Memphis, beginning with the first meeting, a week ago Sunday. His Spirit was poured out in a striking way, healing many sick ones. He blesses Sister Etter, giving out the Word. Her mission is to call God’s people together, they are coming from many States, as they do to all her meetings. There are people here who were healed a year ago in the Dallas meeting. Also a sister who was healed in the San Antonio meeting. Here is her testimony:
“Though it has been nearly a year since I was healed, my testimony has never been printed in any paper, but feeling it is my duty to God and man, I now send it. In the fall of 1912, a hard lump appeared in both my breasts. My home physician treated me for several weeks, and the lumps kept getting larger, and the swelling around them kept spreading out on my body and arms. He sent me to a specialist at Winona, Miss., and after examination he pronounced my trouble cancer, and wrote my home physician, and sent the letter by me, and he read the letter to us at home when I gave it to him. It said, “I find Miss Ray to be suffering from malignant cancer in both breasts, etc., and I have advised her that her only hope of cure is an immediate surgical operation. This was in October and I put off the operation until June 18, 1913, and went to Sister Etter at San Antonio, Texas, and she laid her hands on me and prayed. The lumps and swelling went and I was healed. I have been praising God ever since.” Miss Carrie Ray.
THE ETTER MEETING
Grace and Truth Assembly, Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 8, 1913.
God has been mightily in our midst during the past week, showing Himself mighty to deliver from sin and sickness, and baptizing in the Holy Ghost. Crowds have been coming. The ​sick, lame and halt have been brought, and have been healed in Jesus’ Name. Sunday morning a woman was brought in from another State, being carried of two. Before she got to the platform the power fell upon her, and she began to leap and praise God, healed, and full of joy.
Many handkerchiefs have been prayed over and sent out, and reports are coming in that the ones they were sent to were healed. Many are here from a distance, and others write they are coming.

“Praise God, from whom all blessings flow.” Surely the Lord is good. We trust the readers of The Christian Evangel will pray much for us and that the Lord will guide us. We started on our Southern tour, expecting to spend from fifteen to thirty days in a place. We came here last Friday and opened our meeting Sunday, November 29. The attendance was good, and such a lovely spirit in the meetings. The meeting opened with such gracious healings. Sister Etter has great liberty in preaching, and as she laid hands on them, nearly every one jumped and leaped and praised the Lord for their healing. All the saints were helping with uplifted hands, praying and believing for victory, which, was very marked. Some were a and others baptized.
The saints of the community, who were much divided, came together. Every difference was laid at Jesus’ feet. All made a new start, determined to see and know nothing but Christ and the resurrection. They were all built up in the Holy Faith. The result was a wonderful outpouring of the Spirit.
