Millerism Until the age of 35, Snow had been "a settled unbeliever in the Bible." He had even worked as an agent for the
Boston Investigator, an avowedly atheistic newspaper. He was
converted to Christianity in 1839, as a result of reading a copy of
William Miller's lectures that his brother had bought. After his conversion, he joined a
Congregational Church in 1840. In 1842, at a Millerite
camp meeting (see also:
Seventh-day Adventist camp meetings) in
East Kingston, New Hampshire, he devoted himself to preaching the Millerite message full-time. On the 12th of August 1844 Snow said in Exeter, New Hampshire, that Jesus Christ would come back on the 22nd of October 1844. ==See also==
