As children, our friends often lived in multi-family housing. We NEVER went in the front doors. We always climbed up to apartments via the wooden porches and stairs in the back.

I started Sunday school at Pilgrim Lutheran church when I was about eight years old. Long after I had left the church for a Presbyterian church, Pilgrim built this new church with a school next door. My brother went to the school for about two years. It did not go well.
