Resume of Revival

TIE gospel meetings held in the
Presbyterian church for the past ten
days closed last Sunday mig t. The
church was PACKED afternoon and eve
ming, and the interest increased with
each service. 1t is impossible to give
at this time even a small summary of
the twenty five addresses which the
Rev. C, A. Berger delivered while in
Glenwood. Suffice it to say that
deep under current of spiritual power
prevailed. A noticeable feature was
the absence o. buster and noise which
frequently accompanies such services.
Glenwood has never had such
strong speaker as Mr.. Berger. We
may never know the good which has
been accomplished by these meetings.
Already nearly one hundred children
and over score of older people have
indicated their desire to turn from
sin and follow Christ.
Christians and non Christians alike
in the community have learned to re-
spect, honor and love MIR. Berger for
his gentlemanly, honest, earnest pre-
sentation of Bible truth. He breaches
n straight, strong, attractive, pure,
powerful gospel which is free from
sensationalism.
The message which he has left in
our hearts and minds will make us
-tronger and better and nobler. We
have nothing for which to apologize.
Living ont the gospel which Mr. Berg
er has preached is the best thanks and
praise which we can show him for his
labor of love among us.

Pastor.

tie recent revival held in that city by
Rev. q. A Defone:
The revival which has been in
First Methodist church closed last
night. The church was packed and
several were turned away, not being
able to secure seats. The interest has
never ceased during the entire meet
ing People We're converted at
nearly every service. The congre-
cations have been the largest during
the past week. Eighty have been at
the altar and fifty five have united
with the church.
REV. G. A Detione who had
charge of the meetings, il one of the
best evangelists in Colorado. He is
faithful preacher, fearless in his
denunciation of sin and his positive
assertion of Christ as the only Savior
from the same. His views of the
special work of the Holy Ghost, sane
tifying the believer, as Il. separate
work from justification, is in keep
ing with the teaching of our church,
as we'll as scriptural.
THE church and congregation feel
that his coming here was of the Lord.
and that if at any other time he can
arrange to visit the church here again,
he will have a hearty welcome He
is very thorough IN his work at the
altar and his dealing with individu-
al souls
Mr.. Dehone has been preaching
some very strong sermons here in
Glenwood since Wednesday afternoon
and the meetings will continue for
several weeks. He is very plain
speaker and does not hesitate about
anything he has to say in condemn
ing sin and urging protesting Christ
ians to live more consistent lives.
