1930's
- OR: 1931-7: Detroit, Mich: "We have been cheered and edified by visits from the Lord's servants. Brethren Charles Keller and Gordon Reager preached the Gospel in West Chicago Blvd. Hall, and Benjamin Bradford in Ferndale. Mr. H. Hitchman ministered in the different assemblies on the "Principles of Gathering." Leonard Gammon's interesting reports on the Lord's work in Angola were much appreciated by the Lord's people here. Our Brethren Cesare Patrizio and Louis Rosania have arrived to operate the Detroit tent in the Italian district this summer. Just as we go to press we learn that Mr. B. Bradford has been called home on account of the serious illness of one of his daughters, an operation seeming to be imperative. Children of God will no doubt make this a matter of importunate prayer."

Dobson and Lipke had six weeks Gospel Meetings, preceding the Conference and the Lord graciously reached a few souls and the saints were cheered."
