Hostesses for the It Is Written meetings in the San Bernardino Swing Auditorium were recruited from the Loma Lihda Hill and University churches. Hostesses and ushers greeted visitors nightly, found Bibles for those who had attended previously, issued new copies to first-time attenders, seated the thousands who poured through the auditorium's several entrances nightly, and throughout it all remained cordial and efficient. The success of the reaping meetings in San Bernardino is due in no small measure to hostesses, ushers, visitors, and laymen who worked untiringly with Bible instructors and pastors behind the scenes in supporting the dynamic team who appeared on stage.
