Their fellow believers, neighbors and friends at Astoria united their efforts with the Seaside church in helping to bring about the new meeting place. On Sabbath, February 26, 1966, the portion of the new building, compris- ing Phase I of the project, was opened for church services. This phase of the overall plan contains a general assem- bly room with seating capacity of about one hundred, auxiliary rooms for Sab- bath school divisions, and utility rooms. It is a compact unit, ample to house the existing congregation on a tempo- rary basis. The Astoria church met with Sea- side on this auspicious occasion. Mem- bers of the Astoria church put in about 3,400 hours of free labor, valued at more than $10,000, in helping to erect the new building at Seaside. That is real Christian love in action. Much credit is due to Elder L. N. Boyd, pastor of the district, for bring- ing the working forces of these two churches together and giving constant direction and assistance in the con- struction work. Merritt Crawford, who has been building contractor for a number of our church buildings in the Oregon Conference, was able to give the necessary leadership and guidance in this work. Elder Ira Follett, former pastor of the Astoria district, and who helped secure the new building site, was also present for the occasion. Two of the Conference officers—V. J. Jester and the writer—and Shirley Burton were able to participate in the worship service and the Sabbath school of this opening day. Following the morning services the members of the two churches, Astoria and Seaside, arranged for a potluck lunch, which was served in the old building nearby. What a luscious feed! Everyone, including all the many vis- itors from far and near, was royally feasted. Seaside is a fast growing area of the Conference. Now, with the new build- ing in use, this area will be thoroughly covered with our message. We antic- ipate immediate and constant growth in the Seaside church membership. Several of our people living in Port- land are uniting their efforts with Sea- side to enlarge the Lord's work in that beautiful beach resort. H. L. RUDY
