*Links:

In 2015 the church elected to sell the historic building at 6th Street and Yakima Avenue.  But it still shows as FBC on Google Maps, and a history section of the Our Church page of the current Website has a b/w photo of the 1908 building as a background.

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the J.C.Deagan Company.
