Parish Church, Selkirk - Moody (1892)



SELKIRK

Picturesquely situated in the vale of Ettrick, had Wednesday all to itself and both meetings indicated the unmistakable workings of the Spirit of God through the labours of his servants. In the evening there was a good overflow in the UP Church, with several addresses by Mr Moody’s helpers. The second meeting in the parish church at night was very large and even when this was weeded out, many remained for the third or conversational meeting, which Mr Moody regards as “the very cream of his work.” A number of quite interesting cases were met with among the inquirers and there seemed a general and hopeful readiness “to step over the line” that marks the boundary between dreary doubt and gladsome assurance.

One interesting fact in connection with the Selkirk meetings was the closing of a large tweed factory for the afternoon to enable the workers to be present.

From, "The Christian," March 28th, 1892.
