Title: Song After Sorrow, 1938, part 2.
Description: "Song After Sorrow" (1938) was a dramatized documentary of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S. Congo Mission work among lepers at Bibanga. Virginia and Ray Garner, of the Africa Motion Picture Project, arrived at Bibanga in late 1938 just as Eugene Kellersberger was preparing to relocate the mission's leprosarium. A portion of the film depicts, as Virginia wrote in her diary of August 23, 1938, "homeless lepers en route [...] The ones without feet rode in carts, the women carried baskets on their heads, and the crippled hobbled along with sticks. It really was quite a scene and should be very effective." [Cf. Glenn Reynolds, "Images out of Africa : the Virginia Garner diaries of the Africa Motion Picture Project," 2011.] This is a 1990s transfer to VHS, likely provided to PHS-Montreat by the Medical Benevolence Foundation.

Title: Faith Presbyterian Church (Germantown, Pa.) register, 1938-1964.
Description: The Presbyterian Tioga Mission was organized at Broad and Butler Streets in 1903. The next year the mission moved to 30 W. Rittenhouse Street in Germantown, and was renamed People's Presbyterian Mission. The congregation was reported by the Presbytery of Philadelphia North as Faith Presbyterian Church (Germantown, Pa.) in 1914. The church was sited at Pulaski Avenue near Penn Street after 1916, and a stone church building was completed there in 1927. Reuben Armstrong, a Lincoln University graduate and assistant to Matthew Anderson at Berean Presbyterian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.). served the church from 1904 until his death in 1924. Clarence Cave served the church from 1950 to 1963. In 1965 Faith merged with the white Second Presbyterian Church (Germantown, Pa.) to form Germantown Community Presbyterian Church.
