Fifteen charter members were enrolled and constituted the congregation of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church of Stockton, by action of the Presbytery of California at a special meeting in Stockton on March 19. A number of other persons are expected to unite with the church in the near future. Mr. Dirk Brink and Mr. Jack Miller, elders in the Sunnyvale congregation but residing near Stockton, were constituted a temporary Session, with the Rev. Henry W. Coray as moderator. Mr. Miller has been appointed by the Session to preach for the present. Morning attendance is running in the forties.
