Work in Vinton Church Progress and Dedication
In August 1899 the Vinton congregation organized just weeks old, met in the courthouse, and faced discouragement. A note funded the church, foundation and dedication on January 14, 1900, followed by over 100 conversions and doubling membership. Despite strain and hard work, cleanup of nearby dumpsites and expansion created a modern church home by 1903, with 303 new names added and 643 sermons given. The writer, Jas. T. Nichols, notes unity, continued service, and ongoing financial and midweek prayer efforts.
