CONVENTION

REPORT Foreword

ANY small conventions have been held during the year 1911, but we were not permitted to attend all, and as interest especially centers around those in connection with the "Transcontinental Tour" and the "General Convention," at Mountain Lake Park, Maryland, we therefore make a partial yet quite extensive report of only these conventions.

Early in the year Pastor Russell laid out a route that would take him to many of the principal cities in the United States and Canada on an eight thousand mile tour, where he was to be the principal speaker at conventions at these places, under the auspices of the INTERNATIONAL BIBLE STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION.

Upon learning of the proposed tour, we asked Pastor Russell if he would have any objection to our getting up a party with a special train, to accompany him, and if he would travel with us. He replied that he would have no objection, but that such an arrangement would enhance his pleasure, and that he would be glad to travel with the party. Arrangements were therefore made.

Some people might be inclined to inquire as to why any should desire to accompany Pastor Russell on such a trip, any more than some other man. Our reason was, we have FAITH that the Lord has returned, that HE is the CHIEF REAPER in this "Harvest," that HE has been supervising the work, for now about thirty-seven years, and that HE has placed Pastor Russell in charge of the work this side the vail. We are glad therefore to recognize him as "that servant", spoken of by the Lord; glad to recognize that the work he is doing is the work the Lord has appointed him to do, and we are glad to co-operate with him and be associated with him as much as possible.

Many have thought what a grand thing it would have been to have made one of the convention tours with the Apostle Paul. Well, this was considered an opportunity of traveling with "a Paul"—one who is doing a work in this end of the Gospel age, similar to the work the Apostle did at the beginning of the age.

There was still another reason for making the trip and that was, to receive the pleasure and profit from being associated with so many of "like precious faith" for over a month, and also the privilege and pleasure of fellowship with friends along the way, giving and receiving blessings. It was considered that the fellowship would be a rich inheritance for all the coming years.

The same reason also applied to those attending the General Convention at Mountain Lake Park, Maryland. All who appreciated their privileges, and were permitted to enjoy either the Transcontinental Tour or the General Convention, or both, were richly blessed.

You may desire to loan this book to others, therefore DO NOT MUTILATE THE REPORT by removing the pictures.
