Progress of the Work in East Portland
By Editor
THE following notice regarding the progress of the work in East Portland, Oregon, is from the Oregonian:— “The increase and prosperity of the Seventh-day Adventists in East Portland have induced several changes and improvements to the church building on G Street, between Tenth and Eleventh. Two-fifths, or sixteen feet of the building heretofore arranged into rooms for special purposes, have been added to the auditorium by removal of the partitions, its area now being 30x40 ft. Other improvements consist of a new pulpit and new pews, and the plastering and painting of the walls. A couple of weeks will witness the rearranged interior in its finished and beautiful form. Money has also been subscribed for an organ, which has been ordered from an Eastern firm. About $100 worth of reading matter in the interest of this church is now distributed gratuitously every month in East Portland and vicinity. Elder Charles L. Boyd, pastor of the East Portland church, recently returned from conducting a successful series of meetings at Carrollton, Cowlitz County, and the organization of a church there is contemplated in the near future. After a short stay in East Portland, Mr. Boyd will leave to hold a series of meetings at Corvallis.”
