The Personal
Papers Collection of the ELCA Archives comprises papers collected by the
Churchwide Archives and its predecessors. Collections are from pastors
of the ELCA and its predecessors, presidents of predecessor church
bodies, lay Lutheran leaders, missionaries, authors, and women leaders.
Individual collections vary in size (from one folder to more than 100
boxes) and scope (from a specific event to spanning a person’s life).
Many are currently unprocessed but still accessible to researchers.
Please contact the ELCA Archives for additional information on these
collections.
