Founding Archive
A cataloged image of the first congregation, borrowed chairs, pallet platform, and open service bay.
Two descriptions
Later displays use the photograph to show how small Promise World once was.
The image cannot show why each person came, which chairs belonged to a funeral home, who mistook the building for an operating tire shop, or that the rent remained due the next morning.
A photograph can preserve scale while removing obligation. The borrowed chairs become humility. The exposed concrete becomes authenticity. The unpaid rent remains outside the image.

Provenance
The novel describes the room and congregation but does not state that a surviving photograph exists. This record therefore represents a fictional catalog concept rather than a claimed recovered image.
Fiction disclosure
This is a fictional archival record from the world of the novel Admit Purpose. It is presented as a literary companion artifact, not as an authentic historical, legal, medical, religious, or institutional document.
