Northern Illinois

By Wm. Covert

WE are getting good word from our churches regarding the blessings which came to them during the week of prayer. The reports that have come to us indicate that all have been benefited. The financial reports are not in yet, so we can not tell whether the total donation will be more or less than last year. The churches in Chicago have given about five hundred dollars.
Four were baptized at the Forty-sixth Street church. At Aledo three were received into the church, subject to baptism, and five others are expected to unite with that church when the three who applied for membership are baptized; so it practically means an addition of eight members to the church at that place. Others are to be baptized soon in Chicago. Also a number of new Sabbath-keepers at Moline are about to unite with the church at that place. Our church statistics show that we have about twelve hundred members in this conference. We hope to see this number materially increased during the year.
