John Nelson Darby visited this exclusive assembly in the 1870's in Lowell, Kent, Grand Rapids metro, Michigan, hosted by Dr. C. Wunch. Jerry Wunch, a grandson, remembers stories of his father sitting on JND's lap as a child during this visit. John Blaak of Grand Rapids was likely there as this meeting too.

The assembly met from +1878-1889+, possibly also meeting part of the time in Saranac in nearby Ionia Co. After 1884, it would be known as TW-Lowe.

In 1899, some (including Jerry's parents) started a Grant meeting on College Ave., Grand Rapids that in 1925 split, with some starting a new meeting on Johannes Street, that reunited with the KLC's in the early 1970's. The majority joined with the opens at this time, and eventually became what is now [Forhttps://fhbc.church Forest Hills Bible Chapel]]. Jerry was a longtime missionary to New Guinea, honored by their government for his standards in beekeeping.
