Grand Avenue Presbyterian church and the pastor.

of the Church of the Strangers, other
wise known as the Grand Avenue Pres-

and in that time, through several
unique features, the institution has

the city.
At the time of Mr. DuBois coming,
the people of the church were com
pletely discouraged. Less than 25 peo
ple were present to hear his first ser
mon. The church building was badly
in need of repairs and paint. The
board of home missions supplied the
entire support of the pastor.
But the pastor secured great re
sponse to his ideas of upbuilding. The
congregation grew and grew, and soon
it came to be known as the church
with a -welcome for every stranger.
Strangers saw the large sign on thfrrmlsslonary work. The pledge Is larger

attended a service to see what It was.
They received such a welcome that
they came again, and before long were

strangers.
One stranger told the pastor recent

pletely at home.
One section of the church Is reserved

; platform continues loyal to the truths!
; for which it stood a generation ago. j
It is to unswerving allegiance to the
i evangelical doctrines of the divinity of j
I Christ, his atonement on the cross
and the final authority of scripture
in all matters of doctrine and conduct
that Northfield, with all of its inter
ests, stands pledged.
"In the fellowship of this common
faith lies, we believe, the power of the
Christian church. In order to
strengthen this bond, we extend a
hearty invitation to Christian people,
or an denominations 10 meet in me
various gatherings to be held at North
field this coming season."
