Report of Western Ladies’ League  The spring meeting of the Western Ladies’ League of the Protestant Reformed Churches was held at Doon, Iowa, on the afternoon of April 26, 1957. 

The Final Triumph of the Covenant People. Zech. 9:1-14:21  With Zech. 9:1 begins the second part of the book of Zechariah. It consists of various prophecies dealing with events that are climaxed by the ultimate triumphs of the kingdom of Christ.

A wonderful victory was accomplished at Jericho. Under God’s guidance, the walls of the city had fallen down. The people of that city, together with all their possessions, had been destroyed.
