By 1922, the congregation had grown out of the small building and a lot became available on Providence Road and Clifton Avenue.
In this photograph from 1990, you can see how huge the congregation had become since 1915.

The building in the photo was completed in 1962 or 1963.
ReplyDeleteI went to elementary school across the street from this church from 1960-66, and can remember the cranes "chomping" the houses that were previously on this site.

The church photo is no way from 1990.
ReplyDeleteLook at the clothes people are wearing.
My guess 1950's or 60's
Been living in Aldan for 50 years.
ReplyDeleteTip: Never say "no way".
Delete50 years? Then you arrived just after it was built in 1963. So the photo could not have been from the 1950s.
I think it was from around 1990, because I remember posing for that (or a similar) photo around then.
1966 0r 1967.
ReplyDeleteMy Bother & I are in the photo.
