Subseries Scope and Content Summary

From the Sub-Series:

This subseries contains administrative, educational, liturgical, and publicity materials created or collected by the Fellowship. Many of these files are quite fragmentary. The chronological files, which form half of the bulk of the subseries, contain general communications from the Fellowship to the congregations at large, including financial and statistical reports, calendars, news releases and other publicity materials; materials relating to fundraising events benefiting the Fellowship as a whole (rather than individual congregations); concerts, anniversaries, and other events sponsored by the Fellowship as a whole; and pastoral letters and other communications from the founder, the Rev. Troy Perry. The subseries also includes directories of congregations and clergy for the years 1974-1983; as files on the 1980 Cuban Refugee Relief Project (to aid the lesbians and gays among the Cubans expelled from their country that year); records of Holy Unions performed by various congregations between 1970 and 1987; materials on Operation Resurrection, a program for spiritual renewal within the church; brochures containing general information on the Fellowship and its congregations; and various editions of "Homosexuality: What the Bible does and does not say". The file on Troy Perry contains materials relating to his activities outside his role as founder and moderator of the Fellowship.
