SEPTEMBER 4, 1814
“ I came to a camp meeting. I was astonished at the vast multitude of people that were assembled on the occasion and could not conceive where they could possibly have come from….The power of God was displayed. Many souls were convicted of sin, and I trust not a few happily converted to God. “Oh,” I said to myself, “the power of God is everywhere. It works in the heart of man nearly in the same manner in every place from the first Pentecost even to the present day.” Singing and prayer alternately was continued during the whole night. The meeting was near Xenia in Green County [Ohio].”
