* 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."
* Witness 1932-12: Detroit: "J. Bernard is holding forth the Word of Life in West Chicago Blvd. Hall with blessing."
* OR 1933-4: Houston, [[Texas]]: "F.W. Schwartz of Detroit writes from here of meetings he and Brother Hunt of [[California]] had. They were encouraged by blessing given them.

* L&L 1949-12: Detroit, Mich.: "O.E. Magee had an appreciated series of meetings in Central Hall here. Neil Frazer is now at Midland Ave. McBain and Crawford are at Schoolcraft having Gospel meetings. David Leatham had a few meetings at West Chicago Blvd. F.W. Schwartz has been helping here and there locally for a couple of weeks, and commencing 13th he expects to be in Galt, [[Ontario|Ont]]."
==1950's==
* LOI 1960-4: '''John Govan''', Detroit, [[Michigan|Mich.]]: Brethren Geo. Graham and Walter Gustafson have just closed a series of gospel meetings in the West Chicago Blvd. Hall, Detroit. The gospel was faithfully preached nightly, but weather and sickness hindered attendance. It is our responsibility to water still the seed that was sown and look to God for the increase."
* WIS 1965-4: Detroit, Mich.: "Saints of West Chicago Hall are exercised about their change, made necessary through circumstances. They have a nice location for a new Hall when their present Hall is sold. Bro. Ferguson had a visit with them recently one weekend.
