This small collection includes minutes, reports, correspondence, mailings, position papers, and printed materials that document the Woman’s Auxiliary and its successor body, the General Division of Women’s Work, in their efforts to integrate lay women into the whole structure of the Episcopal Church on every level.

The records of the United Thank Offering (UTO) office includes materials from two successive UTO Coordinators: Judith Gillespie and Alice P. Emery. The bulk of the collection contains correspondence with a small amount of financial records also included.

The collection comprises the personal and professional papers of Pamela Pauly Chinnis, primarily from her time serving as President of the House of Deputies from 1991-2000. It includes speeches, sermons, writings, correspondence, notes from various committees served on, and notes from various conventions and conferences attended. Within the Subject Files are numerous files on women’s participation in The Episcopal Church. Also included are family photographs and personal papers dating back to Chinnis’ youth, as well as some professional papers from the 1980s.

The ACI series relating to St. Philip’s School is primarily the ACI director’s correspondence (1921-1937), which details the reasons that St. Philip’s was never made an official ACI school. St. Philip’s publications providing historical background include a brochure (c.1920s) and Opportunity (1923-1924, 1929). Documents relating to ACI’s financial appropriations to the school (1921, 1923, 1931, n.d.), correspondence of the Bishop of West Texas (1921-1922), and a report of an evaluative visit to the school (1926) complete this set of records.

The Records of the United Thank Offering Office (UTO) comprise materials from two successive UTO Coordinators, Aileen S. Rucker and Alice P. Emery. Included are general correspondence, detailed files on grants, materials from the UTO Planning Committee, and general mailings.
