Mr. Roy Hibbert.
Beloved Brother, — I received your letter and read it with much interest. That the brethren have in mind the formation of a second meeting in Calgary is good news; not because I had gathered any such impression while among you but because of the facts your letter contains.
These facts indicate that there is material for two meetings and hence that you may count on the Lord’s blessing in the undertaking.
One difficulty in small meetings — the two suggested in Calgary will not be nearly as small respectively as many — is the tendency in brothers of ability to go away for weekends with their families; but this will hardly exist with you all as there are no nearby meetings, and thus all will be at home generally. That God may guide and bless you all in every way will be our prayer for you.
There is much to cheer in these parts. Special meetings continue and are blessed of the Lord. We had a very good season at Westfield last weekend. Mr. Devenish was at Somerville, Massachusetts, and is expected here today and some meetings are arranged.
There is good news generally from Great Britain and elsewhere abroad. Special gospel meetings in Sydney and Melbourne — of which you may have heard — are blessed of the Lord.
[p. 248] I trust Mr. Hardwick is, or has been, blessed among you. The Lord is with him.
We are now looking forward to Indianapolis. There are to be meetings in Plainfield also, God willing. Mr. McCallum is expected.
My wife unites in love in Christ to Mrs. Hibbert and you and all.
Affectionately in Him,
James Taylor.
