It’s strange how at one time we want to run away from everything that represents rules and propriety and consequences.

I know the PDF is named 736 E 26th Street, but as you can see, by the time this directory was made, that church had been sold and were were meeting at 1781 W 38th, where the church remains today. I don’t know, but I suspect this directory inaugurated the new building and body. It was a difficult transition and many families left. I don’t remember any photo family directories from the old building.
