Our work here is much as before. I grieve to say that there are few
with whom I can pray, and in the few cases where I can do so, it
must be done as by stealth. But there are those with whom I can
talk. Hoimer and I have a meeting for the women every Sabbath, and
on other days. Every Tuesday, Hoimer, Raheel, and I have a little
meeting together, and it is very pleasant, but will be more so when
the Lord shall increase our number. O that we longing ones might see
that day, and our troubled hearts rejoice!
During the nineteen years since the Seminary was established, it has
enjoyed, in all, twelve revivals; and though it is not desirable to
count up the results of human labors, it is due to the praise of
divine grace to record, that out of those who have been connected
with it, as many as two thirds have, in the judgment of charity,
been created anew in Christ Jesus.
