Great Awakening.

A grand work is being done al
the Piney Grove church through
the fundamentally of brothers
Jenkins and Taylor, assisted by the
many christian workers at thet
place.
The interest was not very great
at first but it has been growing con.
tinually aud as reward for ardent
work and in answer to much pray.
er God Is pouring out his spirit
abundantly and the whole commu.
nifty is being greatly blessed.
There have been up to date some
thing over 80 conversions and II
accesions to the church. A very
striking feature OF the work is the
grove meetings, one being held by
the ladies and another by the men
every evening before the service.
The work is likely to continue
through this week. Will all christ.
ian people please bear this work in
mind in their dev0tions.
