God’s perfect peace.
I received a letter and an article from Br. Elias Aslaksen entitled: “The Saints and Military Service,” and am sending it to you because he wanted you to share your thoughts, and then send it on to Br. Berg and Br. Birkeland. I think a circular letter like this will have a good effect in these days, because it will clear up many questions about these matters. Express your thoughts, and then pass it on as quickly as possible. Maybe it could become an article for Skjulte Skatter.
In the world you will have tribulation, but in Me you will have peace. Hallelujah. God is extremely good to us; His name be honored and praised. Greetings from Br. Kvalheim. We arrived here today, and I haven’t gone ashore yet. I have sent Sr. Dannell’s letter to Aksel, Aslaksen, and Karl. I hope you don’t mind. It is blessed to see the fruit of our labor in the Lord; it is fruit that will last. Greetings to Brs. Risnes and Lohne, as it fits.
I don’t have much to write at this time, since I just wrote the article that I enclosed. I am sending the draft, as it is a lot of work to write out the article again.
Warm greetings from your brother,
Johan
