On November 10, 1953 the Church Council and Pastor Haag met with Dr. Dwight Putman, Synod President, at the church to discuss becoming a single church parish. The President was concerned about the relatively small communing size of 160 and the fact that our building fund was interfering with the regular general fund. The giving in the congregation would need to be increased by at least $50 per communing member. His recommendation was to defer any action at that time.
