* L&L 1948-2:
New Hall at Mansfield, Ohio: "The Christians at this place have finished building an attractive and comfortable brick building for the use of the assembly. The Name of our new building will be called: Lincoln Heights Gospel Chapel, Kentucky Ave., and Ashland Road, Mansfield, Ohio. The order of our meetings will be as follows: Breaking of Bread 9:30 a.m., Sunday School and Ministry Meeting 11:00 a.m., Gospel Meeting 7:00 p.m., Prayer meeting and Bible Study Wednesday 7:30 p.m.
Mr. James Hunter, 359 Ashland Road, Mansfield, Ohio, the correspondent writes: We had a very nice Watch night service, and on January 4, we had the opening Service at 2:30 p. m. In the afternoon, W.G. Foster from [[Ohio#Cleveland|Cleveland]] and F.W. Schwartz from [[Michigan#Detroit|Detroit]] were with us. The building was filled to capacity, and the ministry was greatly appreciated by all present. We have started our Sunday School and intend to use the basement for class rooms while upstairs the parents who come with their children can gather with the Christians to listen to the Ministry of the word, with a clear message in the Gospel to interest them in order that they may be won for Christ. We are expecting David Lawrence from [[Centerville Gospel Chapel, IA|Centerville, Iowa]], D. V., March 21 for two week meetings. All the Lord's dear people are welcome and any of the Lord's servants wishing to come for meetings will they kindly write to the correspondent."
* LOI 1948-12: Mansfield, OH: J. Hunter: "Brother F. W. Schwartz recently finished a series of Gospel meetings at the
Lincoln Heights Gospel Chapel. The attendance was fair, with a few strangers coming in. The homes in the neighborhood were visited by brother Schwartz and the Sunday school teachers; tracts and invitations were distributed to every family in the community. No definite results were evident, but we feel the seed has been sown, and we pray that thosewho heard the Word will yet be won to the Saviour. Our meeting at ll:00 a.m. Sunday is proving to be a help to ourlittle assembly; some parents are bringing their children for Sunday school and remaining to hear a Gospel message. Please pray for the work here in Mansfield."
