** Detroit Meeting Room (TW) +1962-1973+
==York County (Portland metro)=====Old Orchard===* Old Orchard gospel work (OB) 1939** Letters of Interest 1939-8: June 27, 1939: James Lyttle of Yonkers, [[New York|N.Y.]]: "For the past few weeks we have sought to proclaim the Gospel in Old Orchard, [[Maine]]. This is a town on the coast and like many such parts of Maine it is without any assembly testimony. There are a number of saints there and part of the ministry we gave was to get the ears of such, so that we might later see them led out to the Lord's Name to meet according to His Word. Brother Halliday came to work with the tent for a few more weeks. I have left those parts to spend some time in the Mountains of [[New York]] state in order that we might reach a number of towns with the Gospel. We usually begin by having open air meetings and using the loud speaker. By this means we are able to test the various places, and where we get the best interest we stay and work as the Lord enables us. A number of such places are on the list now. It is a great pleasure to carry the message of light where we know the people to be in darkness." =Misc.=

** Our Record 1930-2: F. Thisse, 1006 E. Hillsboro, '''Tampa, [[Florida|Fla]].''': "We had a happy time here January 1st. Weather was beautiful and a company of us gathered by the river, a few miles from the city, to sing God's praise and read His Word. Brn. N. McConnell of Butler, [[Pennsylvania|Pa]].; D. Sutherland of Belleville, [[Ontario|Ont]].; '''J. Heap of Maine''', were with us, the Lord gave His blessing. In the evening we met at the Gospel Hall for Bible reading and prayer. We are glad to welcome any true servants of God, who come to help us."
