Life sketches of ellen g. white

And in the farewell service marking the close of the
Conference, she once more appealed to the delegates
assembled from all parts of the world, to endure as
beholding the Invisible. She exhorted every worker to go
forth in the strength of the Mighty One of Israel. She
declared that while she might never have the privilege of
meeting her brethren in another Conference like this one,
yet she would pray for them, and prepare to meet them all
in the kingdom of glory. p. 421, Para. 2, [LS15].
Important Counsels -- It was during the 1909 General
Conference that Mrs. White read a manuscript calling for
loyalty to the principles of health reform; and she also
spoke to the delegates on the same subject. Another
manuscript read was "A plea for Medical Missionary
Evangelists;" and still another "The Loma Linda College of
Evangelists". p. 422, Para. 1, [LS15].
Following the Conference session, Mrs. White met twice
with the members of the General Conference Committee,
before going on to Philadelphia and other cities of the
East, and thence to campmeetings and institutions in the
Central States and the Middle West, en route to her
California home. p. 422, Para. 2, [LS15].
In her interviews with the General Conference Committee,
Mrs. White read manuscripts dealing with some of the
problems that were perplexing the brethren. The call to do
a much larger work in the cities at home and abroad, than
had hitherto been attempted, could be responded to only as
men and means could be found to use in the carrying forward
of such work. In order that a broad and far reaching
campaign might be inaugurated quickly and effectively, Mrs.
White suggested the advisability of releasing for
evangelistic service some of the workers bearing heavy
burdens in institutional centers. She said: p. 422, Para.
3, [LS15].
"For the conduct of affairs at the various centers of our
work, we must endeavor, as far as possible, to find
consecrated men who have been trained in business lines. We
must guard against tying up at these centers of influence
men who could do a more important work on the public
platform, in presenting before unbelievers the truths of
God's word. . . . p. 422, Para. 4, [LS15].
