ing the experience of Second Blessing Holiness. 3. Persistent personal work was cited as a most effective means of

2. We should by all means carry on Home Missionary work because we have what the people need.

DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
To the twenty-ninth Annual Conference of the New York District of the Pilgrim Holiness Church:
It is with a deep sense of gratitude to God that we gather in this another Conference. We live in uncertain times. Darkening shadows are fast gathering over the face of the whole earth, while the forces of evil relentlessly war against the kingdom of Jesus Christ. In this trying hour it is great to know we have no need to fear the outcome. Our con-cern is that we have the kind of stuff within, of which Christian Warriors are made. With unity of purpose and love and with faith in God and each other we can scorch the earth with Holy. Fire. The need is for devoted, consecrated and unselfish men who will actually give themselves to the task of the "Great Commission."
Our Church has presented to us a framework of evangelism which is to characterize our movement for the coming four years. It is up to us to give life to such a program, but we can only do it as passion for men motivates our purposes. It is not difficult to follow Jesus Christ as He stills the storm tossed Sea of Galilee with a Peace be still." fl would have been an exalted privilege to have been at the tomb of Lazarus on that day when the voice of Divine Authority spake and the chains of death were broken. These wonderful miracles however, were only stars in a midnight sky. Since the beginning of God's dealing with mankind, He has revealed himself through those who unselfishly left all to carry a cross over the dusty highways of life.
Great men go to battle, not for the laurels to be won, but because a cause needs defending and victory is reward enough, yet it is fitting to give credit to all who have done their part in blessing our District in the past year.
All of us should be thankful for Bro. Babcock and the work he has done in Pittsfield. The growth has not been phenominal in its nature and its geographical location to the rest of the District is not too favor-able, however, I predict that with vision and sacrifice the day will come when we will have a Church in that great and beautiful city. Our lease runs out on August First and our urgent need is for a place for Bro. Babcock to live.
Cherry Valley is being placed on a Home Missionary basis this year and this places our Home Missionary funds under a heavy strain, but we can do nothing else and be true to the work of God.
In my report last year I mentioned East Worcester as a prospective Home Missionary Work. Today we have a pastor on that ,field and we predict a great future. Bro. A. E. Blann deserves much credit for the many miles traveled and for the perfect willingness with which he has given oversight to this work at East Worcester. He has driven through
all kinds of weather week after week, over a 50 to 60 mile route and his service has been owned and blessed of God. Bro. Blann in conducting cottage prayer meetings has made a strong contribution to the Home Missionary work of our District. Several others have gone there from time to time at my request. Bro. Shaltenbrand has been very faithful in attending the Sunday services when I could not be there.
While on the subject of Home Missions I might say that I dream of someday pushing our work Westward and voices are already asking for our help in that direction.
OUR FINANCIAL AND NUMERICAL STRENGTH
In the past year we have given $23,551.56 for Foreign Missions, which is over $500.00 more than the previous year. Our budgets are paid in full. We spent over $7,000.00 for District Home Missions in the current year and our numerical gain this year is exactly 20, making our present membership 1053.
PROPERTY IMPROVEMENTS
Bro. Pierpoint's Binghamton Congregation is now in process ot building a large and beautiful Church. The pastor is now enjoying the new parsonage which has been completed recently. The new location and attractiveness of these structures should serve to enhance the work of God in that great city.
Bro. Lawrence has completed a new church in Brushton that surely is a credit to him and his people and at the last report the people Were facing the future with much faith and optimism.
Bro. Rickenback is building a Church and parsonage at TunkhannOCk, Pa. This structure will be patterned somewhat after our Cherry Valley Church. Much hard work lies ahead for the pastor and his people but the hope is that by fall they will be in their new place of worship.
Bro. and Sr. M. R. Blann worked hard and faithfully in redecorating their Church at Monticello, inside and out. This place of worship 15 very neat and inviting.
Bro. Finch transformed the hall in Amsterdam before he left for his present charge. After Bro. Zerby arrived he did much work on the par-sonage.
The work at Ox1ord is better today than ever before and surely Bro. and Sr. Horseman deserve a lot of credit for the face lifting they have given our property. I am waiting for the day when someone will give Oxford enough to start a new place of worship.
OUR PILGRIM NEWS
The whole District owes Bro. Finch a great debt for his efficient handling of our District paper. Being Editor of our paper is not a little thing, but the man by God's help has proven as big as his job.
—23—
MY PERSONAL REPORT
I have preached 130 times, visited most of the Churches twice and some more than that, conducted 15 Annual meetings. I have had one re-vival in connection with our Home Missionary Work. I gave 12 weeks 01
work to Pittsfield, two weeks th Victory Grove Camp, three weeks to Binghamton Camp and one week to Brushton Church.
I have attended two board meetings at Allentown, one Superinten-dcnt's meeting at Indianapolis and the General Conference. I have con-ducted one Ministerial Convention, and three Camp Meetings, I have preached 31 times at E. Worcester and given 16 Sundays to this work.
In the interest of the Kingdom work I have traveled 20,000 miles.
My prayer today for us is that we will be so endowed with the spirit of martyrs of the past, that the church will be blessed tomorrow.
Respectfully submitted,
Orrin L. Fay
