ming committee was unanimously
by the congregation. The
plan calls for a three story building
with ample class rooms to take care
of the more than $50 persons who
are enrolled in the Sabbath school.
for a decidedly larger sanctuary
and an adequate pastors study and
library.
For a great many years the
present building has been woefully
inadequate to serve the sabbath
school and church congregations,
and from time to time private homes
have been used by the various
Sabbath school classes.
The present structure will be the
core for the remOdeling operation,
the new addition will be built
around it. The next issue of the
Chronicle will carry an artists
drawing of the new building addi-
ton.
