Description

Board members from Seventh Church do their own private investigation of the Fort Lewis Christian Science Activity after a statewide conference of Christian Science churches on May 29, 1934, was held to decide whether to renovate the building or shut it down. Meanwhile, events in Germany under its new Chancellor, Adolf Hitler, raised concerns about the oppression of Christian Science in Germany and the possibility of another war.
