The large remodeling project changed practically the whole appearance of the interior. Sawdust trails gave way to hard-surfaced flooring; thick layers of straw on the kneeling area around the altars gave way to velvety carpeting; long benches gave way to modern walnut-stained chairs, 2400 in number, well arranged in different sections. One thing that has never changed is the spirit of the meetings, which has never given way to modernism. Old-fashioned prayers get old-fashioned results whether the seeking soul is kneeling on straw or plush.

An addition of 60 feet at the rear of the tabernacle made room for a large elevated, terraced platform 35 feet deep and 70 feet wide. This semicircle setting has a seating capacity of around 200, which accommodates the orchestra, chorus-choir, ministers, and assisting workers; and soft pastel colors on the walls give a pleasing appearance. The 40 recessed ceiling lights provide perfect lighting for the musicians and singers.

The woodwork of the main part of the sanctuary is mauve. Along the sides hang gold-colored brocaded draperies which separate the central and the winged part of the building.

Overhead hang two long silver-colored indirect light channels, 125 feet each in length. On the sides are wooden channels of lights. The metal channels were moulded and prepared for use by two of our young electrical engineers - twin brothers who dedicated their lives to the work of the Lord. An added attraction is the beautiful grille for the organ sound chamber in the loft. And in matching woodwork is the large central loud-speaker chamber, which provides clear reception. Speakers for the public address system are operated by personnel in an upstairs control chamber where tape recordings are made of the services.

Just inside the entrance of the tabernacle are two mothers' rooms adequately equipped for the care of infants and smaller children.
