Some of these had met with us from curiosity to hear what I had to say; others thought me beside myself to be so persistent in my efforts, especially when they manifested no concern on their own part. But at every one of our little meetings I continued to exhort and pray for each one separately, until every one had yielded to Jesus, acknowledging the merits of His pardoning love. Every one was converted to God. {Ev 447.5}

Nogle af disse havde vi mødt af nysgerrighed for at høre hvad jeg havde at sige; andre synes at jeg var ved siden (448) af mig selv, fordi jeg var så vedholdende i mine bestræbelser, specielt når de ikke viste nogen interesse for deres egen side. Men ved ethvert af vore små møder fortsatte jeg med at formane og bede for hver enkelt, indtil en havde overgivet sig til Jesus, anerkendt fortjenesterne i Hans tilgivende kærlighed. Alle blev omvendt til Gud.
