UPLAND, Calif — Don Vannoy,
regular evangelist for the Upland
congregation for the past two
years, has been required to quit
preaching due to ill health. This
congregation is asking that a good
evangelist he directed to them.
The Upland congregation, meet
Ing at 201 North First Ave., has
enjoyed continuous growth, even
though during the last year they
have had much serious illness
among the members S. E. Witty,
who has been Upland's personal
worker for the past three years,
has been in the hospital twice, re-
quiring several blood transfusions.
There is a membership of about
170. The congregation owns their
own building and is buying a
preacher's home. A building fund
has been started for a new church
site as they are outgrowing the
present building.
