Title: California youngsters aid Phoenix church.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-30841 CALIFORNIA YOUNGSTERS AID PHOENIX CHURCH PHOENIX, Ariz. -- The Primera Iglesia Methodist Mexican church at Phoenix, Ariz., got a “new look”, thanks to the energy of 30 teenagers from North Ridge, Calif. The young people answered a call from the Rev. William Howard of the North Ridge Methodist church to use their Easter vacation by taking a bus-trip to the Phoenix church, which was badly in need of paint and other repairs. The young people raised money for the journey through spaghetti dinners and other fund-raising activities and spent a week in Phoenix not only renovating the Primera Iglesia church but, according to Mr. Howard, gaining experience in Christian fellowship and understanding. The California clergyman (at far right, upper left photo) directs paint-mixing chores, with Harold Gifford (standing, left), Methodist Youth Fellowship councilor from California, and the Rev. Mardoquero B. Garcia (standing, center), pastor of the Phoenix church. The visiting workers swarm all over the church, in bottom photo, and take a break from their labor, at upper right.
