LD' ; forms one unit
The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints (LDS) Belfair
First Ward and Belfair Branch
have combined into one unit, now
called the Belfair Ward. This
change has been announced by
Bremerton Stake President Leo-
nard Anderson under the direc-
tion of LDS leaders in Salt Lake
City.
The branch was formed locally
in 1981, and completed the cur-
rent church building off Victor
Cut-off Road in 1983. By 1993,
the group had grown necessitat-
ing a split into two units meeting
at different times. In 1997, porta-
ble buildings were brought in for
additional classrooms.
On Sunday, July 11, there was
a vote of the members of both con-
gregations in a special sacrament
meeting, confirming the creation
of one unit from the two. The 521-
member congregation looks for-
ward to major reconstruction of
the current building. That work
will commence in the spring. The
addition will create a larger chap-
el, increase the number of class-
rooms, and add office space.
Mark E. Hendrickson, a 16-
year resident of Belfair, has been
called to serve as the new Bishop
of the Belfair Ward.

Stites on the mend
Last week, Ray Stites, long-
time Belfair barber, felt winded
without good justification for it.
When he checked his blood pres-
sure, it was normal, but his wife
was concerned enough to drive
him to the Belfair Fire Hall.
Although Stites had no history
of heart problems, and never ex-
perienced pain, the medics told
him he was about to take a little
trip to the hospital. He returned
home last Friday, July 23, with a
pacemaker, and nothing but
praise for the great care he'd re-
ceived. "The ambulance crew and
the hospital were just exception-
al!" he said.
His doctor told him to stay
home for three weeks. "This will
be the most time I've had off,"
said the barber, who was already
bored. He'd rather be cutting
.hair, but for now, he'd be happy
to receive greetings, which can be
mailed to: Ray Stites, 601 NE

Stites on the mend
Last week, Ray Stites, long-
time Belfair barber, felt winded
without good justification for it.
When he checked his blood pres-
sure, it was normal, but his wife
was concerned enough to drive
him to the Belfair Fire Hall.
Although Stites had no history
of heart problems, and never ex-
perienced pain, the medics told
him he was about to take a little
trip to the hospital. He returned
home last Friday, July 23, with a
pacemaker, and nothing but
praise for the great care he'd re-
ceived. "The ambulance crew and
the hospital were just exception-
al!" he said.
His doctor told him to stay
home for three weeks. "This will
be the most time I've had off,"
said the barber, who was already
bored. He'd rather be cutting
.hair, but for now, he'd be happy
to receive greetings, which can be
mailed to: Ray Stites, 601 NE
Beck Road, Belfair 98528.
