迁到梅尔罗斯
主已经按祂的旨意为祂的工人们在新英格兰推进工作打开了路。在那里有许多特别的工作要做。那里的弟兄们已经能够安排将疗养院的地址从南兰卡斯特改到梅尔罗斯，一个离波士顿近得多的地方，并且仍离热闹的城市足够远，以便病人可以拥有最有利的条件恢复健康。把新英格兰疗养院迁移到一个去波士顿非常方便的地方合乎上帝的旨意。当主着手在我们前面预备道路时，上帝不许任何人退后，质问这样前进的智慧，或拒绝给予鼓励和帮助。{SpTB13 3.1}
我蒙指示看到，将新格兰疗养院从南兰卡斯特移到梅尔罗斯是主所引导的。{SpTB13 3.2}
凡在这个疗养院工作的人都应努力使它成为一个模范机构，在那里公义的活泼原则要盛行。我们照顾病苦之人的机构应当站在的高台上。它们应当执行平等公义的永恒原则。在这些机构里工作的人应当在公正的天平上衡量自己的行为，并且实行严格的公平。上帝希望每一个服侍祂的男人和女人都本着纯正和真理站在祂面前，顺从祂所有的诫命。无论真理的亮光照耀在哪时在，都必须保持心灵的清洁。我们疗养院中的所有工人都应当始终记住，他们是在奉献给主的机构中工作着。{SpTB13 3.3}

SpTB13-《THE NEW ENGLAND SANITARIUM》
【Removal to Melrose】
The Lord in His providence has opened the way for His workers to take an advance step in New England,—a field where much special work should be done. The brethren there have been enabled to arrange to change the location of the sanitarium from South Lancaster to Melrose, a place much nearer Boston, and yet far enough removed from the busy city so that the patients may have the most favorable conditions for recovery of health. The transfer of the New England Sanitarium to a place so convenient to the city of Boston, is in God’s providence. When the Lord sets His hand to prepare the way before us, God forbid that any should stand back, questioning the wisdom of going forward, or refusing to give encouragement and help.{SpTB13 3.1}[1]
The removal of the New England Sanitarium from South Lancaster to Melrose has been presented to me as being directed by the Lord.{SpTB13 3.2}[2]
Let all who are connected with this sanitarium labor to make it a model institution, where the living principles of righteousness shall prevail. Our institutions for the care of the sick and suffering are to stand upon the elevated platform of truth. They are to carry out the eternal principles of equity and righteousness. Those who are working in them are to weigh their actions in the scales of justice, and practise strict equity. God desires every man and every woman in His service to stand before Him in purity and truth, obedient to all His commandments. Cleanness of spirit must be preserved wherever the light of truth is to shine forth. All the workers in our sanitariums should ever remember that they are laboring in institutions dedicated to the Lord.---October 24, 1902.---{SpTB13 3.3}[3]
