ARIZONA 85373 To the many Church Bodies that have so graciously contributed their Year Books or other Records to our microfilm Best wishes to one and all 1 We are in the 34th year of our work, and up to the present I have never sent information about the micro-film that we make. Our previous letters always have gone to the libraries of colleges, universities, theological seminaries, and research institutions. However, I am at last yielding to the requests of a number of our participating Church Bodies and am sending to you the enclosed information pages. If you want tiny of our films, just let me know. Please notei WE ARE MOVING, as of October 1, 1986. Our new address after that date will be Dr. A. T. DeGroot, Director Ecumenism Research Agency 1067 East Centerville Road Apartment 3207 Garland, Texas 75041 We will be pleased to serve your interests in our area at any time. Again we thank you for your kindness in providing the valuable Official Records that go into the hands of many concerned Centers. Cordially yours, ECUMENISM RESEARCH AGENCY 9 A T. DeGROOT.

Founder (1932) and D irector October 1988 WYLIE, TEXAS 75098 To the Headquarters of all Church Bodies in the USA & Canada Dear friends of many yearss This is now the 37th year in which we have been engaged in Baking the microfilm collections shown on the enclosed Record fage. By this letter, we seek your cooperation in gathering the Official Yearbooks of all Church Bodies, to be microfilmed in their entirety and released as 'The State of the Churches in the USA & Canada 1988." For the previous issues of this large collection, see the back side of the enclosed Record rage. Many, perhaps most, of you can send us a copy of your existing Yearbook (do not wait for a Jater printing of a new edition), without charge. It is only in this way that we can keep our costs within bounds. However, if it cannot be sent free, send us a bill, and we will pay. This is the only collection of its kind. It has very great value for a large number of or^inizatlons and agencies. Your cooperation in this project is immensely valuable. We plan to keep this good work going at least until 1990. That will be the time for issuing a new edition of The PUith & Order Commission, World Council of Churches, 1980-1989. Again, we send our grateful thanks for your good help in this program. We can borrow from our Old Testament inheritance, and say. 9 ’T v\ ' n ’T'? 1 t t v i t ^ 5 w (Hear, 0 Israel, the Lord thy God is One.)
