Annual conference, 1939

A large group, mainly of children, stand in front of a church building. The image appears to be reproduced from a newspaper or magazine. This could be a Mennonite church conference, although Stirling Avenue was an independent congregation in 1939. This could also be a conference for the "Lord's Acre Movement," an American organization that inspired Stirling's Crusaders program.
