UPON Easter Sunday, First Church of Christ, Scientist, Portland, Oregon, dedicated its church. The following clipping from the Evening Telegram is a voluntary comment from the paper, and is of interest in connection with the event.
Yesterday was a red letter day for First Church of Christ, Scientist, Twenty-third Street, near Irving.
This joyful occasion was the dedication of the church. The purchase of the lot and church and the repairs necessary amounted to $4,000. The Christian Science Churches never resort to the usual means of raising funds. There are no solicitations, and the money is obtained by voluntary contributions. The collection a week ago Sunday was sufficient to wipe out the debt.
