Report
C.A. Cornlious, Box 625, La Porte, Texas: "We have just closed a very fine meeting in which Jesse M. Kelley did the preaching. His sermons were indicative of much care in preparation, and were ably delivered. Brother Kelley shuns not to declare the whole counsel of God, and he does so in language that is easily understood. Such preaching can only edify and instruct. There were five responses with two baptisms, aside from the renewed enthusiasm among the members here. We feel that much and lasting good was done in the meeting. Brother Kelley is doing an outstanding work in a very hard field in Altus, Oklahoma. May God's richest blessings rest upon him."
Valente Rodriguez G., Monterrey, N. L. Mexico: "Last night we had an attendance of 37, more than our 34 chairs to seat the people. Our service was very spiritual also. Yesterday in the morning brother Oirilo Gonzales, the young man who is being prepared with us to preach the gospel, preached his third sermon. He is improving a lot. Yesterday in the morning a young man (17) confessed Christ and was immersed at afternoon in a river, not far from here. During the gospel meeting that we had in the second week of July four were baptized. Nine have been baptized in this year and until today continue faithful. The membership has almost doubled from the beginning of this year."

Your co-operation, by sending bulletins, news items, etc, has been greatly appreciated and has contributed to the success of this page. Even though this has been an enjoyable work, it has been a time consuming work, Several weeks ago I asked brother Tant to find a replacement, as I wanted to give it up sometime this year, because I didn't have the time to give to it. At this writing I do not know whom he has selected. I urge you to send your news items, announcements, etc. to the Gospel Guardian, Box 470, Lufkin, Texas.
