In the meantime Mr. Richmond has built up a good congregation. In the spring of 1944, Mr. Richmond started the erection of a church building on Forest Ave. The work was done by Mr. Richmond, personally, aided by members of his congregation.” The church was completed and the opening services were held on Apr. 22, 1945.” (1)
