Why Not You 7 € ■s ■ ■ iiiiiiuiiKsiimiiiimmiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiinggJ J were several visitors and several | more enrolled in the Sunday school l i j last Sunday. The B. Y. P. U's. are meeting at, 5:45 Sunday evenings and are dis-j i pensing with the assembly for the; usual closing program in order to; get to the tabernacle for the young; people's meeting at 6 :30. j On Monday morning of this week' : many seemed to think that there ] i should be a prayer service at the' ' Baptist church Monday night as j ■ there is no service at tabernacle on ' 1 Monday nights. Notices were post-! ied for the meeting at 7:30. The W. j 1 M. S. met at seven o'clock for their j ' regular monthly meeting and after t I this came into the prayer meeting j j of the church. Soon the intermediate j I assembly room was filled and the ( j folding doors were opened and fold- [ • ing chairs placed in the corridor, j • By the time the last seat was placed j jit was filled and then the doors on j j other side of the corridor'were open-j jed and the primary assembly room \ i ( opened up. Men were busy carrying | ' chairs which were filled about as fast, l as they were placed until some had . jto be left standing. j This was one of the most unusual i meetings we ever attended. People j were confessing their faults and j praying until about ten o'clock J j when all joined in an old time hand- j j shaking. During this time it seemed j | that all present had one desire to j i get right with each other and with! | God. As soon as this occurred peo- i I pie began to break down and ask for j J prayer. The unsaved were convicted i . and there were numbers of conver-! ' sions. The meeting lasted then until j I midnight or later while one after an- • j other "came clean for God." Some! j who had once been Sunday school i ( teachers came and said they had come i J back to God and was ready for ser- j 1 vice again. People were sobbing all j i over the audience and here and there i j were groups kneeling in prayer with j ] someone who was under conviction, j " 1 After most of the folks had gone j 1 mmmmmmm. ' j several men went into another room jand joining: hands and hearts prayed ! together and rededicafced their lives 'to God. This after prayer meeting ! lasted until about one o'clock a. m. Of the large number who were under conviction all left radiantly I happy except one man who said he i "must do some things first." It is ' impossible to describe this meeting, I and many stated that they had never lin all their lives been in one just | like it. j Large crowds are attending the 1 tabernacle meetings and after the 1 prayer meetings of the members of j the two churches here Monday night j it is expected that the meetings will : gain new and greater momentum. | Scores have been asking for prayer 'and there have been several conver j sions even through an invitation has j not been extended. Rev. Stephens j has been saying that some other things must get right with the Christ i ians first and we believe that now great results will be accomplished.
