New sanctuary and Christian Education Building
The Congregational Bible
Church, Rt. 441 By-Pass,
Marietta, will dedicate its
newly constructed sanctuary
and renovated Christian
Education Building with
special Dedication Services
and a Bible Conference
October 1-5.
In less than three decades
the congregation has out-
grown its facilities three
times. In 1964 the congrega-
tion procured ten acres of
land and built a sanctuary
seating 400 people.
The new building has a
sanctuary with a seating
capacity of 700, together
with a large narthex, offices
and additional rooms. The
renovation of the old
building provides nearly
4,000 square feet of addi-
tional Sunday School space.
The general contractor for
these new facilities was
H.W. Nauman and Son,
Lancaster. Building com-
mittee chairman was
Clifford G. Miller, and Lloyd
Pickell served as finance
committee chairman.
Rev. John S. Hiestand
served the congregation as
its first pastor. After his
retirement, the church was
pastored by Rev. Leonard
Anderson, Rev. James W.
Reapsome and Rev. Robert
Willey.
The program of the
church includes regular
Sunday morning Sunday
School and worship ser-
vices, Sunday evening ser-
vices, and Wednesday night
Bible studies and prayer
meeting with classes for all
ages.
The church has a regular
community outreach pro-
gram through door-to-door
. visitation and a ministry to
the youth at Market Street
Youth Center, under the
leadership of Gary Newton.
The church has sent out
and supports a number of
foreign and home mission-
aries.
The following guest
speakers will be serving in
the Conference and Dedica-
tion Services:
Dr. Harold L. Longe-
necker, a charter member
and former Youth Director
of the church, and now
pastor of Des Plains Bible
Church, Des Plains, Illinois,
will speak Wednesday and
Thursday evenings.
Rev. Dennis Hollinger,
the first Youth Pastor of the
church and now an assistant
professor of Church and
Society at Alliance Theolog-
ical Seminary, Nyack, N.Y.,
will speak Friday evening.
Rev. James W. Reap-
some, who served as pastor
of the church for seven years
and is presently managing
editor of Christianity Today
in Wheaton, Illinois, will
speak Saturday evening and
Sunday morning.
The Dedication Service
for the new sanctuary and
the Christian Education
building will be held Sunday
afternoon. Rev. Robert
Willey, assistant professor,
| of Congregational Bible Church to be dedicated
Department of Bible, Lan-
caster Bible College and
former interim pastor of the
church, will bring the
Dedicatory sermon.
An evening of sacred
music will conclude the
series of meetings on
Sunday.
Evening services will be
held at 7:30 and Sunday
services at 10:30 and 2:30.
The public is invited to
attend the services and view
the new facilities.
