Excerpt from Winona Echoes: Notable Addresses Delivered at the Twenty-Ninth Annual Bible Conference, Winona Lake, Indiana, August, 1923 Most merciful and ever gracious God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our God and our Father who are in heaven, we present our selves before Thee this morning at the Opening of this Bible Confer ence in this place so hallowed by the memory of Thy presence and benediction in other days. Graciously grant, O God, to bless in a special manner not only during this hour, but in all the hours of this Assembly which has been called in the name of Thy dear Son. Give to those who are charged with the responsibility of direction the wisdom they so much need from on high; to the ministers of Thy Gospel, _new inspiration and vision and renewed faith in the coming of Thy Kingdom, and to all Thy people here gathered an increased appreciation of all it means to have been redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
