Wesley Corpus

To John Baxendale Date: LONDON, February 25, 1785. Source: The Letters of John Wesley (1785) Author: John Wesley --- MY DEAR BROTHER, - You send me an agreeable account of the work of God in and near Wigan. Indeed, His work will flourish in every place where full sanctification is dearly and strongly preached. This year I only call on a few Societies on my way. My business is with the Societies in Ireland. hope to call at Manchester on Saturday, April 2; at Bolton, the 4th; Wigan, Tuesday, the 5th. Perhaps I might preach at Wingates on my way thither. [On April 5 at noon he 'preached at Wingates, in the open air. The congregation were quite ripe for all the Gospel blessings, devouring every word.' See Journal, vii. 65; and letters of Feb. 19, 1784, and April 3, 1787.] - I am Your affectionate brother.
