Slides 1953-1960

This series comprises approximately 518 color slides of activities, institutions, and people associated with the Philadelphia Motherhouse of Deaconesses. They are from 1953-1962, but most of the slides are undated. Many of these slides are duplicates of those used in promotional and educational material created by the deaconesses for use in congregations and other settings outside of the motherhouse (See ULCA 22/10). The slides in this series represent family and student life at the motherhouse, holidays, types of work conducted by the deaconesses, including medical work, parish work, welfare work, and ecclesiastical arts. In addition to being undated, most of the slides are unidentified.
