DFMS Administrative Operations

This class is used to hold the executive-level records related to the supervision and administration of DFMS operations, especially, but not exclusively, the records of the Chief Operating Officer and functions overseen by that person and staff (e.g. IT/T, property management, human resources). Records may include records relating to the organization of the Mission Program units, internal management policies, staff-wide development projects, and activities.

DFMS Legal Records and Internal/External Counsel

Legal correspondence, opinions, litigation, advisories, case files, property records, insurance claims, contracts, copyright and service marks, and related legal records of internal and external counsel, including records of the Chief Legal Officer. (See also records of the Presiding Bishop's Chancellor.)

Institutional Development and Fund Raising

Records typically created in the planning and cultivation of sources for fund raising such as capital campaigns, annual campaigns, major gifts development, sponsored grants and prospects for planned giving. (See also FA 06 Institutional Development for records of financial accountability.)

Diocesan and Parish Records and Collections

  • DP
  • Record group

Primary source records received from parishes or Dioceses by canonical requirement or within the collection policy of the Archives, or deposited by an independent church entity for safekeeping. Records of missionary districts and pre-Executive Council missionary fields and jurisdictions are generally maintained in the Foreign Mission class (MP-02 or MP-04).

Forward Movement. Records

A small and somewhat artificial collection of the organization’s records are maintained as Series 4 of the Records of Forward Movement. It includes early records, especially the Joint Commission’s report, a scrapbook (compiled by the Bishop Edward L. Parsons), correspondence and some ephemera. The Parsons scrapbook was left intact for its artifactual value. It serves as a record of the early years of Forward Movement from 1935-1937. Catalogs make up a large part of the records and document the agency's publication run. Some promotional materials exist from 1934-1943.

Forward Movement. Publications

Amounting to approximately 25 cubic feet, the Forward Movement Publications Collection currently spans the period 1934-2021. The print publication record begins in 1935. The collection is defined by four series: (1) Serial Publications: Out-of-print Publications; (2) Serial Publications: Forward Day by Day; and (3) Books and Pamphlets. (A fourth series of records is separately cataloged). The Out-of-print Publications in Series 1 are organized alphabetically by serial name and then chronologically by year. Series 2 consists of one Forward Movement serial publication which is still in-print – "Forward Day by Day,"and is arranged chronologically by year.

Forward Movement

Episcopal Service for Youth. Records

Much of these records date from the first fifty years of the Church Mission of Help (CMH), when its primary focus was on social services. These records include the annual file, containing documents related to the organization’s annual accomplishments; sub-committees and member agencies file; and the majority of the Executive Committee and Board of Directors minutes and reports, which are accompanied by associated documents such as the bylaws and constitution. Additionally, the general file contains documents related to conferences in which the CMH participated, as well as miscellaneous materials such as case worker evaluations, clippings, and correspondence related to Executive Secretary Edith Balmford (1950-1960).

The financial records from this period are concentrated towards the later decades, with most of them beginning in the 1940s. Notable exceptions include some ledgers, beginning in 1920; documents related to the Standing Committee on Trust Funds, also beginning in 1920; and documents related to scholarships and fellowships, spanning 1910 through 1972. The CMH’s final years are most heavily represented in the remaining financial records, including budgets, financial statements, correspondence, cash receipts, and income; however, there are also organizational histories from the late 1960s and Executive Committee and Board of Directors minutes and reports from 1960 through 1975.
