...this experiment-the West Islip congregation now has its own $300,000 church and has won 100 converts-that other ministers set up similar communities in Somerville, N.J., and Stamford, Conn. This year, the Churches of Christ plan to organize new congregations in Rochester, N.Y., Burlington, Mass., and Toronto, Canada. By 1968, they hope to ship a readymade congregation to Sao Paulo in Brazil...

Architect John Andrews, an Australian-born professor on the Toronto faculty, likens the setting to that of Italian hill towns, feels he has created in the building a response to the demands of site, climate (no one has to step out of doors in a blizzard to change classrooms) and educational program.
