December 6, 1819 – no entry (Thaddeus Journal)
6th. Attended the monthly concert this evening in the cabin. How animating the reflection that the disciples of Christ in every part of the world can unite at the same time in directing their petitions to the King of Kings for the extension and enlargement of the kingdom of Christ in all parts of the habitable globe. Who would not esteem it a privilege to take a part in this glorious work, even though trials and afflictions attend on every side; for it is through much tribulation that we are to enter the kingdom of God. How much better to suffer affliction in the service of our Lord and Master than to dwell in alluence, and have no other treasure but that of this world. How precious is that promise, Lo I am with you always even unto the end of the world, (Samuel & Nancy Ruggles)
