Cotton Mill in Use

Controversial Nelson cotton mill, which has been idle since completion, about the middle of last year, was the site for a revival campaign conducted over the holiday period. Volunteer helpers of preacher Ron Coady did a tremendous job of work erecting a giant stage and transforming the bare interior into a church with a difference. Congregations did not, however, reach, the size expected.
