October is Theological Libraries Month and this month our spotlight is "The PCUS in China, 1867 - 1961."
Inspired by the Beijing Olympics in August, Paula Skreslet, Ted Winter and Robert Oliver prepared these displays from the Archives to include wonderful photos, artwork, evangelistic publications and weird objects donated by missionaries of the Presbyterian Church in the United States over the years.
Many UTS alumni and professors served in The China Mission, including Professor James Edwin Bear Jr., who wrote an extraordinary five-volume history documenting the church's work in China. Bear himself was born in China, as were many well-known leaders of the PCUS.
The China exhibit located in the Library entryway and atrium will continue during the month of October. Come and see it!
