At the 2:30 session in the afternoon Elder Haskell spoke to the conference on the condition of the missions in England. At 4:30 Elder Van Horn, president of the Michigan conference, addressed the meeting on “Church Discipline.” It was in the nature of a lesson for young missionaries, and contained many valuable suggestions for their guidance. As a rule the Adventist churches are pretty particular about those whom they accept into the church. An applicant must convince the committee that he is thoroughly converted and has had a complete change of heart before he will be accepted. The church discipline is of a high order, and a missionary who doesn’t come right up to the scratch is pretty likely to be brought up with a sharp turn. MMM 583.2
