Special Efforts in New England -- "The work we have to do
is a wonderfully great work," she said in another of her
discourses during the Conference. "There is a world to be
saved." In this connection she referred especially to the
blessing that would come to the cause of God through a
strong and united effort to proclaim the message in the
cities of New England, where the first and second angels'
messages had been given with mighty power. "We must bring
to these same cities the glory of the third angel's
message," she said. "Who among us is trying to scatter the
rays of light where the truth was so favorably received in
the early days of the message?" p. 418, Para. 4, [LS15].

make every effort to spread a knowledge of the truth to all
who will hear, and there are many who will listen. All

interested in what is truth. There is earnest work to be
done in the Eastern States. 'Repeat the message, repeat the
message,' were the words spoken to me over and over again.
'Tell My people to repeat the message in the places where
it was first preached, and where church after church took
their position for the truth, the power of God witnessing
to the message in a remarkable manner.'" p. 419, Para. 2,

Delegations from Abroad -- The presence at the 1909
General Conference of over a hundred delegates from abroad,
gave Mrs. White opportunity to meet old friends with whom
in former years she had been associated in labor. Often
during the Conference she was visited by groups of brethren
present from some foreign conference or mission field, who
conveyed to her personally their greetings, and reported
