John 1:40-41 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.… Some time ago one of our people, who had herself been a drunkard, was standing at one of the open-air services on the waste, when she observed a woman who had formerly been one of her bad companions suddenly leave the crowd and walk quickly away. Hurrying after her, she found this poor drunkard in great distress about her soul. "Oh!" she said, "I listened to the speakers; but when I saw you standing there so wonderfully changed from what you used to be, I could stand it no longer." She was induced, however, to return to the meeting, and then to attend the service in the hall, where she found salvation. She is now another living witness of the power of Christ to save the drunkard. May God preserve her faithful unto death! (General Booth.)
