    The Conference Session

    At the session of the Swedish Conference, which opened on Wednesday, about sixty-five church members were present from the ten churches. Twenty-three were delegates sent from nine of the churches, representing a combined membership of 250. Leading ministers present were J. G. Matteson, O. A. Olsen, and W. C. White.3BIO 346.3

    Ellen White's meetings Sabbath and Sunday were well attended. She brought to the people practical instruction on true sanctification as contrasted to a spurious, no-cross experience in which perfection is claimed but is far from being attained. By the close of the general meeting she had spoken eleven times in ten days.3BIO 346.4

    “I think that the work here is going well,” she wrote to Mary, back in Basel, “and I have felt much better healthwise than for months in the past.... The brethren are much encouraged. It is a good meeting and everything moves harmoniously.... I tell you, things look much different than when we were here last fall. There is a good hall, good seats to accommodate the people, and if Jesus will work with our efforts, we will be encouraged indeed and He will be.”—Letter 38b, 1886.3BIO 346.5
