    HISTORIC CONTEXT REPORT “A Harvest in the Open for Saving Souls” The Camp Meetings of Montgomery County By Elizabeth Jo Lampl with Clare Lise Kelly Montgomery County Planning Department Historic Preservation Section Prepared for the Maryland Historical Trust July 2004 SOURCE OF COPIES: The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission 8787 Georgia Avenue Silver Spring, Maryland 20910-3760 www.montgomeryplanning.org/historic Author: Elizabeth Jo Lampl, with Clare Lise Kelly (Cavicchi) Originally published as Montgomery County Department of Park and Planning Reprinted 2012, Montgomery County Planning Department Cover photo: Spencerville Camp Meeting (see page 68 for photo credit) I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nineteenth-century Montgomery County was an ideal locale for the American ‘camp meeting,’ a phenomenon that started in the mid-1700s and has endured into the present day. The camp meeting was a religious gathering set in nature - a grove, a clearing on a farm, or a seaside spot. The meeting was characterized by large audiences attending religious services and camping at the site of those services for an extended period of time. At the writing of this report, the local camp meeting tradition is at risk of completely dying out, for only one of the four, primary camp meetings of the Montgomery County remains active and it is threatened. The importance of documenting this tradition is critical and twofold: First, the camp meetings belong to both a national and local folklore tradition that faces obstacles to its continuance. It is important to capture the voices, faces, and stories of those who participated in the evangelical revivals, many of whom represent the last generation to offer us authentic oral histories.

  • Oxford Institute of Methodist Theological Studies, August 2007 HISTORY and DEVELOPMENT of METHODISM (Post-Wesley) Working Group
    Oxford Institute of Methodist Theological Studies, August 2007 HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF METHODISM (post-Wesley) Working Group From the Prairies to the Potteries – Cultural Adaptation and the English Camp Meeting British Methodism has at the heart of its theological self-understanding acts of remembrance and of proclamation. The Doctrinal standards of the church set out in Clause 4 of the Deed of Union declare that the church ‘ever remembers that in the providence of God Methodism was raised up to spread scriptural holiness through the land by the proclamation of the evangelical faith and declares its unfaltering resolve to be true to its divinely appointed mission.’1 (CPD Pt2 p 213) The phrasing does of course have echoes of Wesley’s own understanding of the purposes of his movement and reflects the distinctive noted by James C Logan ‘…Methodists were a mission movement before they ever became a church…Other church traditions may trace their origins to distinctive confessional or theological patterns. Wesleyans on the other hand, became a church not for confessional reasons but for evangelistic or missional reasons’2 For this reason, the historical celebration of origins in the tradition, if it is to be done theologically, is necessarily a re- examination of the identity and purpose of Methodism – not simply a recollection of ‘what happened when’ but rather of ‘why we did happen and why we continue to exist as a tradition’ This year of 2007 has seen the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the first English Camp Meeting held at Mow Cop in Staffordshire on May 31st 1807.

  • CHURCHES of the NOT-SO-STANDING ORDER by Peter J
    CHURCHES OF THE NOT-SO-STANDING ORDER By Peter J. Gomes Pilgrim Society Note, Series One, Number 18, 1966 When confronted with the mass of material relating to Plymouth’s religious life in the last century a vast amount of editing and defining must be done. The task is a difficult one, for it is quite easy to be caught up in the intricacies of memorabilia and artifacts, genealogy and antiquarianism in so broad a topic that the necessary scope and vision become obscured in a welter of details. The details are meant only as illustration of the broader pattern and are of little worth in themselves, to us anyway. Let me define our area for consideration by telling you what I do not intend to deal with: I shall avoid a discussion of Lutheranism and Catholicism, not out of some capricious whim, but because I am convinced that these religions can only be seen adequately within the context of the European immigration movements of which they were so important a part. I shall further avoid a discussion of the peculiar particulars of the much-discussed and little understood "Unitarian Controversy" of 1801 except as a necessary prelude to greater developments in the Plymouth religious scene. And finally, the various destinies of the daughters and stepdaughters of the Pilgrim Church are also not the proper subject of this paper. It would take a major dissertation merely to consider the schisms, personal and theological, which sprinkled Congregational churches all over the Plymouth landscape. In order to have anything at all left to say, I concern myself with what I would call "Churches of the Not-So-Standing Order" or perhaps subtitled "Churches Not Seen from Clark’s Island." I am devoting myself to the evangelical, minority sects, the pent-up harvest of the first "Great Awakening" of the 1740s, which made their initial presence felt in this ancient Pilgrim town from the coming of the Baptists in 1809 to the celebrated Negro Camp meetings of the AME Church at Morton Park in 1866.

  • The 1868 Manheim Camp Meeting of the National Holiness Association by William Kostlevy, 1997
    Christian Perfectionism in Pennsylvania Dutch Country: The 1868 Manheim Camp Meeting of the National Holiness Association by William Kostlevy, 1997 [Editor's note: William Kostlevy is the archivist for Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. He was the Fall 1997 Fellow at the Elizabethtown College Young Center for the Study of Anabaptist and Pietist Groups. The following material was taken from a larger paper presented by the author at the Young Center on November 13, 1997. We wish to thank the author and the Young Center of Elizabethtown College for allowing THE CHRONICLE to print the results of Professor Kostlevy's research in this form.] Introduction One of the most significant inter-denominational religious phenomena of the late nineteenth century, the Holiness Movement was committed to the propagation of a second religious experience following conversion variously called Christian perfection, entire sanctification, full salvation, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, heart purity, or the second blessing. Although historically rooted in eighteenth century Methodism, especially in the writings of John Wesley and John Fletcher, perfectionist elements in the Wesleyan revival found fertile soil among both plain and Lutheran/Reformed Pennsylvania German evangelicals. 1 Former Mennonites Martin Boehm and Christian Newcomer, founders (along with Reformed pastor Philip William Otterbein) of the United Brethren in Christ Church, joined Methodism's circuit-riding bishop Francis Asbury and former Lutheran Jacob Albright, founder of the Evangelical Association, as leaders in the spiritual awakening that swept the Pennsylvania Dutch country in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Both United Brethren and Evangelical Association members actively sought the experience of entire sanctification, or full salvation.
