'V's wonderful what God cep
do with just a handful of humble
people."
These words, spoken feelingly
by soloist Kenneth James, express-
ed the thought that moist have
been uppermost in the minds of
the 300 persons who attended the
dedication service held in the new
Bethel Pentecostal Tabeanacle Sun-
day afternoon. a
• Twenty-one year ago When Rev.
Harold Underhill held the nf1rst
Pentecostal service in a residents
on, South street in Goderich, there
were eight Pdrsons—all members
pf one family—.0 attendance.
Since then, the congregation has
grown steadilybecause of the
guidance of, a succession of devoted
Ministers and the loyalty of the
members themselves.
Duringthe past several months
a beautiful new church was erect-
ed at the corner of Elgin avenue
and Waterloo street, largely by'
voluntary labor; men, women and
even children toiled without'
thought of any monetary reward.
And they were led by a fervent
young minister, Rev. R. J. Green,
who came here to his first charge
after graduating from Bible Col-
lege in 1955.
The dedication — of
of the new
church on Sunday afternoon, then,
was a 21 -year dream- come true,
The impressive ceremony was
conducted by Rev. Walter Mc-
Alister, general superintendent of
the Pentecostal Assemblies of
Canada and secretary of the World
Pentecostal Association. He dedi-
cated the new building "to the
extension of the Kingdom of God."
In his 'address, he termed the
church "a 'harbor for Christians."
Worth' Up To $45,000
With the -help of volunteer labor,
the new church was built for
around $20,000. An out-of-town,
contractor and a visiting minister,
onto has particular knowledge of
building projects, estimated over
the week -end that the church would
have cost • $40-$t ,000 if it had
been 'built entirely under contract.

REV. R. J. GREEN
During the dedication service,
Mr. MvAlister said that the new
church needed $350 in offerings
Sunday to meet current obligations.
Later, Mr. Green took great plea-
sure in reporting that the offerings
were "far above expectations."
Total attendance at the three
services and Sunday School on the
day of dedication reached 700.
One of the -first things to Strike
the eyes of persons entering the
church was a large illuminated oil
painting on the 'wall at the very
front of the church. The painting,
which portrays the Jordan River
and the Hills of Lebanon, was done
by Rev. Jack West, a Goderich boy
uud former member of the con-
gregation.
Among those present at the
dedication service were memisers
of Town Council, members of
Goderich Ministerial Association,
former pastors of Bethel Pente-
sa
cot 1 Tabernacle, members, ad-
herents and interested citizens.
Preceding the service, numerous
organ selections were played by
Bob Liddell, -'of Gat. The service
began when Mr. Green entered,
followed by Rev. Dr. K. E. Taylor,
president of Goderich Ministerial
Association, and other visiting
dignitaries.
Meowing the. singing Of a hymn
by the assembly and a prayer said
by Mr. Green, Mrs. Alf Hoy sang
"Bless This 'House," accompanied
by Mrs. William 'Hoy, church
pianist:
Mr. Greco welcomed the capacity
cooled. and introduced a former
"Bethel Tabernacle pastor, Rev. Jack
Pearson, of Tilisonbur$ , who led
in the singing of-° two hymns.
Prayer was then said by Mr. Under-
hill, the original Bethel pastor who
is now residing in Toronto.
Said Mr. Green: "We're so glad
that so many of our friends. from
Goderich and surroundipg district
could be with us this afternoon
on this wonderful occasion _ of
dedicating our church."
Town Officials Attend
He noted that ministers prose
nt
besides those previously-mention-
ed,
reviously-mention-ed, included Rev. R. G. MacMillan,
Rev. K. L. Sweigard, of Clinton,
and Rev. A. J. Harris, of Kin-
cardine. Several members of Town
Council ;Aid the town clerk repr
sented the corporation at t
dedication.
Dr. Taylor, offering congratul
tions on behalf of Goderich Min
Venial Association, spoke of th
new church as "this splendi
undertaking so beautifully acco
plished."
He noted, "In Goderich, we hav
a very happy religious fami
All our Protestant ministers wor
together because we feel we ar
all children of God."
Following greetings brought b
Rev. Harold Kendrick, sectio
head of the Pentecostal Churc
Ted Gower spoke on behalf of th
building committee.
Mr. Gower stated, "I'd like t
say thank you to all the member
of the church for working so faith
fully. We would like to say thank
you to everyone—from the young-
est child to the oldest man who
helped."
He made special mention of the
work of Moses Martin, the only
contractor employed during the
framing and construction. Then
he proceeded to thank the sup-
pliers. He listed these as follows:
Goderich Manufacturing Co. Ltd.,
Herco ,Sales Co., Worsell Bros.
Hardware, Norman Hoy (for paint
and painting work), Stradwicks
Ltd., London, B. R. Robinson, Ex-
eter Furniture ,Co., George F. El-
liott Construction Ltd., 'of Clinton,
and Rev. Harris, of Kincardine
(for wiring and light fixtures).
Mr. green admitted it had been
"quite an item" to move here to
his first charge and then start
building a church. He modestly
maintained that much credit should
go to the former pasrs who had
laid the ground -work for the pro-
ject. He added that he had re-
ceived wonderful co-operation from
all concerned in building the
church.
Steady Growth
Mr. Underhill spoke -'of the first
few Pentecostal meetings held here
21 years ago. There were eight
persons at the first meeting and
two persons at the first communion
service, lie said, in pointing to the
steady growth from that small
begirning.
Mr. Green said there had been
one person in particular who had
"stood for a lot" while he worked
night after night at the new build-
ing. He referred to his wife, and,
at his request, she stood up, holi'l•
ing their litt,to,son,Steven,
Observ'ng that the church stanch
in "park -like surroundings," Mr.
McAlister, the general superintend-
ent of the Pentecostal Assemblies
of Canada, remarked on the beauty
of Goderich in general. He con-
gratulated the congregation on
their tremendous accomplishment
and paid tribute to the work of
their young minister.

a project of this nature," raid 'Mr. make and that al true believers
are one in ChriSt."
He stated that the origin of the
Pentecostal Church was in, the day
of Pentecost. The Pentecostal As-
semblies oft:Caadat today have 100
missionaries in foreign fields, he
said, There are even, believers in
Russia, he ,Stated, and there has
been encouraging news from them
lately.
Undoubtedly many would won-
der what the new church cost, he
said. He commented; "This build-
ing didn't cost nearly as much as
its worth, because of the volti'nteer
labor—the lebpr of love—punt into
it. Men, women and even children
helped,+'
God demands that his people
be holy people and that the church
be unblemished, he asserted.
The reason, said Mr. McAlister,
is, "There are many people who
will not read the gospel by Mat-
thew, Mark, Luke or John, but who
will read the gospel according to
you or me."
The service ended as Dr. Taylor
pronounced the benediction.
The pastor's father, Fred Green,
of Cornwall, was in charge of
ushers at the service. Ushers were
David Gower and Joseph Berry.
"At the district fellowship service
on Monday afternoon, Mr. Under-
hill was the speaker. The area
rally on Monday evening was ad-
dressed by Rev. William Fitch, of
Windsor.
On Tuesday, Rev. David Owen,
"the cycling preacher" from South
Wales, began .a series of evangel-
istic services which will carry
through at Bethel Tabernacle until`

Mr. Green replied that no young
man could come into such ' a situa-
tion and do what had been done
without the help oil the Lord.
In other remarks, he credited
Mr. MacMillan, of Knox Presby.
teriazi Church, with givinig vnluaJi e
advice based' on knowledge gained
during the building of the new
Knox Church.
Thanking members of his con-
gregation fpr their loyalty, Mr.
Green mentioned Thomas Twain -
ley in particular. Mr. Twaimley
worked many hours at the new
church until his health broke, said
the pastor. He said he was pleased
to see that Mr. Twarnley had been
able to come out to the ded'icaticn
Sunday.
Gestures Appreciated
The Bowers in the church bad
been sent by Goderich Manufactur-
ing and by the Nomads, said Mr.
Green. He expressed appreciation
to Floyd Lodge, Who had installed
his own public address system in
the church nursery for the dedica-
tien service, and to Ed. Stiles, who
had loaned extra chairs. The
organ was supplied for the service
by G. Rutledge & Sons, of Galt.
Mr. McAlister, 'who conducted
the dedication, said he was per-
sonally glad. that members of the
'Pentecostal Church are known for
their fervent spirit.
After the dedication, 'Soloist
Kenneth James, of Detroit, sang -
"How Great Thou Art," accompan-
ied by his wife at the piano,.
Mr. McAlister said, "We' do not
