Jump to: navigation, search

Hillside Gospel Hall is an open brethren assembly in the village of Cass City, Elkland Twp., Tuscola Co., Michigan. It met in a farmhouse near Ubly in Huron Co., from as early as 1891 thru 1927 when it built a hall, eventually in the Hillside schoolhouse for many years in Cass City, and in more recent years in a residential home where it remains active.

  • 1926 USCoRB indicated that there were 14 in fellowship (7 men, 7 women). The Hall met in a farmer's home until 1927 when they were building a Hall, with no debt (and with $5 in annual expenses), and $285 was additionally spent towards the Lord's work in 1926.
  • TBM 1927-12: "Ubly, Mich. - Brethren here are expected to open their new hall shortly. They have 'remembered the Lord' in a farmhouse for years, but the Lord has given them heart to 'enlarge their coast'."
  • TBM 1928-3: "Ubly, Mich. - A hall has been opened three miles west of this place for the Assembly worship and work. It is six miles south of Bad Axe, and seven miles north and nine miles east of Cass City."
