A GlOrlOussMeetIng

For some time the local Baptist
church of Ontario Oregon. has been
without pastor. The church has been
praying for some months that the Lord
would send us a leader of his own
choosing. On November 9th. Rev. ID.
f. Baker, of Sedro Wooley, Wash,
came to us, we believe in answer to
prayer.
On Tuesday evening. November 10th,
we began series of revival meetings,
which continued until today. There has
been number of conversions with an
additional ten new members to the
church.
Seemingly all obstacles have been re-
moved and the church is united for
work as it has not been for the last few
months.
At the beginning of the services a
large chorus choir was organized which
under Mr.. Bakers direction. rendered
efficient music during the entire meet
ing.
Sunday November 10th, Baptist
Young Peoples Union was organized
which now numbers twenty five mem
bers.
Last Sunday the church met in con-
ference at the close of the morning SER
vice and unanimously extended call
for Rev. Baker To become its pastor,
meeting every proposition without a
dissenting voice, which he has accepted,
and will go to the field the first of the
year.
Mir. Baker has proven himself lead
er, andlunder his direction We predict
for the church bright future.
