Canada Meeting

[Page 14]

     Through kindness of brethren meeting at North Annex, in Regina, capital of the province of Saskatchewan, I was privileged to present my views on current issues in that city during February. Arrangements were made for use of a public hall for five meetings, and a school auditorium for one. During two sessions I shared time equally with Bro. J. C. Bailey, of Carman, Manitoba, in discussion of "Institutionalism" and "The Work of an Evangelist." Each of us set forth his views for 30 minutes then submitted to questions for a like period. Bro. Bailey proved himself a gentleman as well as a scholar. He contributed much to the meetings by his gracious spirit so we differed as brethren and not as enemies. On Lord's Day afternoon, Bro. Cecil Bailey, principal of Radville Christian College, divided time with me on "Mutual Ministry and One-Man Ministry." Like his brother, he demonstrated a genial disposition, and the discussions were kept on a very high plane. On that morning I worshipped with the North Annex congregation and some five or six brethren spoke to edification. In the evening I met with the Retallack Street congregation, after which the brethren from both places assembled to hear my final presentation. Despite snow and temperatures reaching 20 degrees below zero, the meetings were well attended, and I am especially indebted to North Annex brethren for making them possible.
