Bethel Church, Md. – Our communion meeting, held June 20, was a feast of love indeed to those who participated in it.  The weather was very warm, and although the house was crowded we had good order.  This was the first love feast held at this church, it having been organized only about a year ago. The little band numbers only about sixteen members.  Our minister from other points were brethren Samuel Utz, Charles Bonsack, C. L. Pfoutz, and Solomon Stoner.  After services at the church, we went to the house of our brother, David Bowers, who has been afflicted for nine months. There we enjoyed another feast with our brother, long to be remembered. – Clara Bowers, Harney, Md.
