Comments:
Elder J. Ross Mortensen and I were assigned to open the first branch in Valparaiso. We became a foursome when we were joined by Elders Joseph E. Tomlinson and Kirt B. Adams. Together with my new companion, Elder David L. Pearce, we rented an old warehouse at Edwards 143. The four of us renovated it and held our first branch meeting on 28 Jun 1959. We started with 10 members and there were 55 in attendance at my last meeting there on 9 Aug 1959. When Elder Harold B. Lee visited the mission in Nov, 150 people crowded into our little chapel to greet him. |
