UTRECHT, Netherlands
'CNS)—All the full-time work-
ers in Holland and representa-
tives from the congregation in
Haarlem, Holland were on hand
to meet the Bill Richardson
family at-the Schiphol Interna-
tional Airport on July 13.
Bill, Carol and their five chil-
dren returned to Holland
aboard one of the KLM Airline
planes after nine months of
work close to their home in
Missouri.
RICHARDSON was among
the first workers to enter Hol-
land after World War IT, and
today he is the man with the
longest record of service in
Holland. He and Frank Wor-
gan are the two men on whose
experience the rest of the full-
time workers here rely in dif-
ficulties. They have the best
command ot the Dutch lan-
guage ano the most inCimate
knowledge of the national cus-
toms.
And the expectations of the
brethren here have not been
disappointed. Since the day of
their return there has been a
closer, more productive asso-
ciation among the workers
here. Some plans that have
been discussed for quite a while
have now begun to crystallise.
DETAILED PLANS Are now
being worked out for a family
group Bible encampment for
next summer. And plans are
already being carried out to be-
gin a thorough two-year train-
ing program for young Chris-
Strengthens' Holland Work
tian men who show promise of
becoming full-time workers for
the gospel of Christ.
By means of such a program
it is hoped that many more
Dutch citizens may be trained
for full-time work than has
been possible before now. The
program will include one year
of intensive Bible study and
one year of closely supervised
work with the full-time workers
already here with concentration
on the practical problems of
full-time work.
THE RICHARDSONS re-
turned to find the work in Hol-
land in a healthy condition.
Moderate growth is being ex-
perienced by the church in
Utrecht, where services con-
ducted in English have recent-
ly added to the size of the
group that worships there.
Several new contacts have
recently been made there be-
cause Dutch visitors have been
present in both the Dutch sarv-1 ers of the churches sf Christ
ices and the English services. | here. Hoch, who was trained
In Amsterdam the congrega-
tion continues in good condition
and plans are now being made
to try to add some badly need-
ed classroom space so that an
efficient Bible school may be
begun there soon.
SHORTLY Bl FOR I the
Richardsons* return, the Good-
heer family moved from Haar-
lem to one of the suburbs of
the Hague to begin laying the
foundations for a full-time work
in Haarlem and following up
contacts made in the Hague by
