Since the church was growing, the house in Connell Town

became too small thereby necessitating larger quarters.

The Sabbath-Keepers rented a lodge-room/house at

Durhams St. Lucy and in 1924 with twenty members,

the church was formally organised by Pastors I.V. Minner

and Charles B. Sutton.  Attending the church at the time

were the Bowens, Burgesses, the Hings, Kellmans, and

the Johnsons.  In the same year the members moved to

the Risk due to a lack of space.

At the Risk the worshippers met in the downstairs section

of a two-storey house.  To attend these services persons

had to walk from as far as Connell Town, the Whim and

St. Andrew.  One of the members at the time who came from

Alexandria stated that if the rain fell, they had to take off

their shoes and drag their feet to cross Collins gully.
