ions Of Ohio:
DEAR SISTERS After three years min
istry upon earth, the Son of God, having
suffered death for us, nscended on high and
left to his disciplesa n command and prom
Use Go We into all the world, and preach
the Gospel to every creature" Ie shall
be witnesses for me. unto the uitermost
parts of the earth" Through sight as lie
overcame the laws of nature and ascended
into Heaven, He quickened their faith and
expectation. Though believing His prom.
Use, they waited not in simple assurance OF
its fulillment, but day by day assembled
themselves together, and continued with
one accord in prayer and supplicaiion F."
until the fulness OF the time of blessing
came.
Centuries before, the Lord had spoken
through His prophet Joel, saying: al
will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and
your sons and your daughters shall prophe-
sy ). and upon The handmaids, in those
days, will pour out my Spirit" As in
the day OF Pentecost, so during the last
seven years, the Lord has graciousiy full
fl lied to His handmaids the promise, and
visited thousands OF the women OF Ohio,
whose desire is unto Him, and who for His
service are banded together in one Union,
the aggregate OF over two hundred local
Unions.
From each OF these, it is the privilege of
three to come up TO our annual gathering,
where we speak to one another of what
the Lord hath wrought, and in His power
plan for the work OF the coming year.
What gathering this may be!
| Six hundred Christian women in "pray-
er and duplication"
| In the years past, scarcely more than
one-sixth of this number have convened
The result has been, ,many lnborers through
ont the State have been wholly unacquain
ted with the plans of work, and for lack oi
knowledge have fainted by the way.
Sisters, the army of death is larger ant
better equipped than ever before, and tn,
Lord is calling His own 10 come up to Hi
help against this mighty enemy. 1t ca,
be done only In the power of the Hol,
Ghost. Were there to gather in co,.ncil
the privileged hundreds filled with tn,
Holy Spirit, this State would lie moved q
never before, and the glory OF our Go.
would be manifest in the overthrow of iii
enemy. That this may be, / beseech you,
!. That until we meet at Akron, on tn
9Th OF June, ench member of local Union
set apart some lime OF each day for prayer
The blessing is promised; let us wait be
fore the Lord until il be fulfilled to us
then we may be witnesses with power.
I'd. That Wednesday, the 1st day o
June, be observed as n day of fasting an,
