  • The Task of United Methodist Women's History Dana L. Robert
    Methodist History, 55:1 & 2 (October 2016 & January 2017) TESTIMONY: THE TASK OF UNITED METHODIST WOMEN’S HISTORY Dana L. Robert In 1862, Mary Clarke Nind of St. Charles, Illinois, was left with sole re- sponsibility for five children when her husband James enlisted in the Union Army.1 The immigrant Nind family was already poor because their hard- ware business had recently failed. As Mary turned to God for support, she overflowed with a deepened faith and felt an irresistible urge to testify. Even though her soldier husband was a deacon in their Congregational Church, Mary Nind was silenced and threatened with expulsion for speaking aloud about her deepening experiences of God’s grace. When the congregation dis- ciplined her for holding “Methodist doctrines in a Congregational church,” she was advised by a friend to join the Methodists because “there is more liberty for women to exercise their gifts.”2 Despite receiving a negative transfer letter from her Congregational pastor, Mary Nind was welcomed into Methodism. The opposition of the Congregationalists to Mary Nind’s call to testify had profound implications for the next century of Methodism. The assurance that God accepted her gifts liberated her to become one of the great preach- ers of the late nineteenth-century, known as “Mother Nind” or “the little bishop.” A tiny working-class woman in a plain brown dress, her testimony was so impressive and “so powerfully accompanied by the Holy Spirit” that Nind left her large family responsibilities and became the organizer of wom- en’s mission societies throughout the West.3 Traveling everywhere by train, stagecoach, or foot, often arriving late at night with nobody to meet her at the station, Mother Nind spoke in camp meetings, revival meetings, and even in churches where the male pastor opposed the idea of women’s societies.

  • The Role of Agency, Solidarity, and Resistance, on the Part of United
    1 Social Change as Mission and Intersectional Sisterhood as Reflexive Influence: A Twin Story of United Methodist Women Glory E. Dharmaraj, Ph.D. United Methodist Women The role of agency, solidarity, and resistance, on the part of United Methodist Women and their predecessor organizations, in effecting social change is one side of the story of women in mission. Equally important is the reflexive impact of engagement in mission on shaping the collective identity of these lay women in mission. This twin story of agency and reflexivity is a multiyear, multilayered, and multistage formation in mission narrative. This paper focuses on how Methodist women responded to the sacred gospel call as well as the “woman question” by an ongoing process of negotiating their countless individual identities into a collective agency for social responsibility. Exploring one key struggle for social change, this paper examines how lay women organized for mission in the Methodist Church addressed the issue of differences among women, with particularities of race and ethnicity in the U.S. while striving to expand their own collective identity. It is a story of a multipronged strategy of operating from the margins and along with the margins, in order to bring about change in the center. A timeless query and a plea Using a modern conceptual framework of a critical theory, this paper seeks to respond to a timeless query and a plea lifted up in 1910 Edinburgh World Missionary Conference. The missional query is the one sent out to missionaries, prior to the conference, to report on the “Reflex Influence of Mission upon the Church” by Commission VI “The Home Base of Mission.” A questionnaire was designed to respond to this.

What did the theoretical frameworks of organized religion offer that made these types of unlikely alliances possible? To answer these questions “Taking the Moral Ground” begins with an exploration of the religious values that framed the upbringing, activist career, and ministry of Pauli Murray, a native of North Carolina and the first African American woman ordained by the Episcopal Church.

  • Those Good Gertrudes: a Social History of Women Teachers in America Author’S Annotated Introduction to Manuscript Collections
    Those Good Gertrudes: A Social History of Women Teachers in America Author’s Annotated Introduction to Manuscript Collections Researching this book led the author to promising collections in many archives in the United States, and to Australia and Canada where scholarship flourishes on teachers and teaching. This addendum is an annotated introduction to virtually all the collections examined for Those Good Gertrudes, the majority of them not cited nor referenced in the published book because of space limitations. The organization is alphabetical, by state and collection title. Annotations generally feature the collection‘s relevance to the particular focus of this work: American women teachers and their place in history. However, researchers working on related subjects may find useful material in various of these collections—for example on child-rearing and family life, genealogy, local history, regionalism, the frontier experience, industrialization, cross-national comparisons, and the expression and effects of social diversity rooted in social class, religion, race and ethnicity, politics, and the saliency of gender identity. A few generally-obscure printed works unpublished student-authored papers housed in archival libraries are cited. Each annotation is followed, where recoverable, by the date [in brackets] when the collection was first consulted by the author. Be advised that collections (as with some of the following) may change over time—by additions, deletions, mergers, renaming, and relocation—or be withdrawn entirely. Moreover, Finding Aids and collection inventories differ markedly from one depository to another in their on-line accessibility, completeness, & stability. A small number of collections are missing, probably the result of being misfiled; if located they will be added, and the listing updated.
