Max Garey, of the fifth class of Gilead, organized the building of the first Kingdom Hall to be owned by the brothers, in Buena Vista, Curaçao. The brothers wholeheartedly threw themselves into the building of this hall and were thrilled when it was finished. In 1961 the second Papiamento-speaking congregation of Curaçao was formed and met in the beautiful new hall, with Victor Manuel, now a publisher of the good news for almost 50 years, serving as congregation servant. Nathan H. Knorr, from Brooklyn Bethel, dedicated this hall on March 28, 1962.
