For years 1 ban real ized the need for a gospel meeting on the Boardwalk to accommodate the isllors to the world's greatest I resort, and three years ago when the opportunity came my way I accept ed li and the work began In Ihe ' face of prcuicted failure and I he an tagonism of the authorities at the begiiiiiing. ihe work has o developed 1 under the blessing of God that now It has i he heart support of the civic authorities .".id the cordial commen- : datlon of the church nd business interests of Hie entire city.
