Mems MONDAY Prayer Meeting.
Is it sleeping so soundly, that it can
not be awakened? The '.sons of Zion
in Columbia did good work in organic
ing the mems MONDAY experimenting.
In nothing so much as in christian
work do great results spring from little
sources; were we more earnest in our
efforts to win souls, surely we would
oftener experience the JOY of seeing the
work of the Lord prosper in our hands.
May our efficient pastors and the
"Father's in Israel" again lift their
voices in prayer, so that the sound OF
the noon day bell will quicken the heart
throbs of all christians. Example is
more than argument. We can com.
mend no more excellent way than the
renewal of this good work, for those
who possess spiritual feelings realize
the need of spiritual sustenance May
this prayer meeting be to beautiful Co.
lumbia what Fulton Street Prayer
Meeting is to New York City.
