Farewell Sermon at Bethel Church in Willmar
The Swedish Lutheran Bethel church holds its farewell sermon for Rev. Adolf F. Nelson after seven years’ service. He urges inviting the gospel as clergy visit from the Pacific mission district. Nelson led debt payoff and oversaw Mamre and Fridaborg congregations. A church parsonage decision and future preaching plans are noted, with Willmar services set to continue twice monthly. Fred Kreps is believed to be en route to support Boer independence, possibly visiting Holland before South Africa.
