Intern

From a ministerial intern.

Oliver W. Lange.

Appreciative and Happy I cannot tell you how much I have appreciated the opportunity afforded me of being one of the Ministerial Internee this year. I was tent master in connection with an effort held during the summer, and when the evangelists were called to other places, I was left in charge of the new Sabbath keepers and the interested persons. This has given me opportunity to visit with the people, to study the Bible with them, and to conduct the Sabbath services. Since the first of the year, when the roads would permit, I have conducted meetings in a country schoolhouse on Sunday mornings, and there has been quite an encouraging attendance. We visited a little town where one Seventh-day Adventist woman resided, and held a few meetings at different times. Last week I again visited the place, and gave lectures in the schoolhouse on two eve¬nings. A cordial invitation was extended by the business men to return and continue the presentations.

The happiest experience I have had since engaging in conference work, came to me last week, when a young man for whom we have been working accepted Christ as his Saviour, and began to keep the Sabbath. He has a wife and four children. His wife attended the meetings during the summer, but he was away from home and only attended a few lectures at the tent. I hope to see this couple unite with the church soon. They have already given up many of the customs of the world, and have adopted the tithing system. It makes me very happy to know that God can use even the weakest instrument in the proclamation of the third angel's message.
