After the resignation of Mr. MacDonald the church called Mr. Burton Davies from Ordway, Colorado. He served the church from September 1935 until 1943 and it was during his ministry, in January 1936, that the church, at the suggestion of Evangelist Cole, set up a Building Fund organization. In July 1936 the vacant lot east of the Church at 904 Niobrara was purchased at a cost of $1100 plus a few paving payments, and in the summer of 1938 the parsonage was moved to this new location to make more space available for extension of the church building.
In November 1938 Mr. Davies led the church in their silver anniversary celebration.
After Mr. Davies' resignation in 1943 the church called Mr. Charles Livingston to be their pastor and he served the church until the spring of 1948. In 1948 a new electric organ was purchased.
Mr. Franklin Page came next to the pastorate and served from July 1948 to March 1950. It was during this time that the Building Committee secured the services of the architect, Mr. Coursey of North Platte, to draw up plans for an educational addition to the church at a cost of approximately $53,000. Mr. Elvin Gulp served as builder and superintendent of building during its construction.
Mr. Earl Seitz came to the ministry of the church in June of 1950 in time to give much encouragement and practical aid in the completion of this task and help plan for the Dedication Day November 5. 1950.
Shortly after the completion of the educational addition the sanctuary of the church was rearranged and altered to provide a more commodious and beautiful place of worship. This work was performed by volunteer labor.
Dedication of the Educational building was November 5, 1950, with Rev. B. C. Bobbitt as the dedication speaker, This new addition has been of great use to the congregation for the past several years and has served the church well.
In 1955 the Sanctuary reached such a bad state of repair that it became necessary to spend a large sum of money remodeling and rebuilding it or to build a new building. After much deliberation the congregation voted to build a new Sanctuary. Much donated labor was expected to be used during construction. The church had an indebtedness of nearly $7,000 on the Educational building at the time.
A fund raising campaign was started under the direction of Mr. P. R. Stevens of Cotner College and with the aid of many teams of solicitors $29,000 in gifts was pledged by our membership.
In the spring of 1955 the old Sanctuary was torn down and the foundations for the new building laid. 'The Congregation met in the basement of the Educational plant during the period of construction until the basement of the new building was near enough completion when they moved into it for church services where they were held until the Sanctuary was completed when a special Consecration Service was held February 14. This was preceded by a fellowship dinner in the new Fellowship Hall, previously used for church services.
During construction of the new building many thousands of dollars were saved by volunteer work Of the members, which the contractors were kind enough to use to advantage. Many changes from the original plans were made as the building progressed, so that at its completion the sanctuary was much more elaborate and beautiful than had been previously anticipated. Total cost of the new Sanctuary was about $60,000. A part of this amount was used on other improvements to the church property apart from the new building. Seating capacity of the new addition is about 315. If needed, additional seating can be provided with chairs, giving a possible seating capacity of nearly 350 in the new Sanctuary.

Just, before completion of the Sanctuary Rev. Earl Seitz was called to serve the church in Kokomo, Indiana and the church at Alliance called Rev. K. Edgar Harris to serve the church here. He canie to us from Aurora, Nebr. Mr. Seitz left us August 12 and Mr. Harris arrived November 24. During this period of about three months Rev. Anderson of the Methodist Church served as our Minister in our morning services.
