Known as “Grace” the car contained pulpit, organ, pews for 65 worshippers and a three-room apartment for the minister and his family. Standing beside the car here are the Rev. and Mrs. Howard Parry who used the car at Provo, Utah for two years. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (PA-NY-LM-5A-6-W-B)
