SALVATIONISTS’ CONGRESS
MOST FRUITFUL GATHERING I Press Association. WELLINGTON, Tuesday. The Salvation Army Congress was continued on Monday. Commissioner Hay addressed the councils on many vital aspects of Salvation Army work. In the afternoon a large meeting, described as a “holiness convention,” was held in the Citadel, Vivian Street, the address being given by Colonel Gaskin, of Melbourne. At night what is described as a new feature in Salvation Army work was held in the Vivian Street Citadel, the building being crowded. It was a meeting characterised by the most intense features of Salvationism, in the prayers, singing, solemn waiting upon God, and the grand climax when a. vast number made consecration. The congress is already considered as one of the most fruitful in the history of the Army in New Zealand. It was continued to-day, when meetings of the officers’ councils were held. The final sittings of the congress will take place to-day, when conferences of the district staff officers will be held.
