7Title:  Gospel Worker Society Records     
 Creator:  Gospel Worker Society 
 Dates:  1874-2006 
 Abstract:  The Gospel Worker Society (founded in 1895 by Reverend William Brunner Musselman) is a nondenominational Christian missionary ministry designed to reach people outside of an established church community, and to encourage them to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. This goal was reached by holding missionary meetings, daily colportage work, tent meetings and saloon work. In 1896 two branches of the Home Missionary Society were established, one being for men and one for women. In 1897 the Women's Home Missionary Society was changed to the Gospel Worker Society, and has remained the Society's name since. Although it started in Annandale, New Jersey, the Gospel Worker Society soon spread to various towns, including Williamsport, Pennsylvania. In 1907 the Gospel Worker Society (as well as their publishing company: the Herald Publishing House) moved their headquarters to Cleveland, Ohio. They resided in a fifteen-building complex on the corner of West Seventh and Jefferson Avenue. In order to stop distributing nondenominational literature that was not written by the Society itself, the Herald Publishing House was started in 1902 by the Society to print its own literature for distribution. After much expansion and numerous name changes the Herald Publishing House became known as the Union Gospel Press in 1922. In 1938 Rev. Musselman passed away, and his youngest daughter, Miss Mary E. Musselman, was elected as president, who led the nonprofit organization until her death in 1971. After Miss Musselman's death, Miss Julia P. Stabley was elected president until her retirement in 1990. Today (as of June 2007) The Incorporated Trustees of the Gospel Workers Society and Union Gospel Press is under the leadership of Mrs. Beryl C. Bidlen, who was elected president in 1990. In 1950 the Gospel Workers Society and the Union Gospel Press moved to their present locations (as of June of 2007) at the corner of Brookpark Road (State Route 17) and Broadview Road (State Route 176). The collection consists of group photographs of members of the Society as well as information on a house located at 2028 Corning Street in Cuyahoga County, a photograph album, and a scrapbook.

8Title:  University Circle United Methodist Church Records     
 Creator:  University Circle United Methodist Church 
 Dates:  1839-2010 
 Abstract:  The University Circle United Methodist Church, formerly known as Epworth-Euclid United Methodist Church, is descended from the earliest Methodist societies in Cleveland, Ohio, having been formed in 1919 from 2 historic congregations: Euclid Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church and Epworth Memorial Church. For over 60 years the congregation has occupied a landmark building in Cleveland's University Circle neighborhood, nicknamed the "Holy Oil Can" because of its tall copper spire. The Euclid Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church began with Methodist classes at Doan's Corners in 1831. A church building, known as Doan Street Methodist Episcopal Church, was constructed in 1837 on Doan (East 105th) Street. A second building was built in 1870 and razed in 1885. In 1887 a new building went up on Euclid Avenue at Oakdale (East 93rd), and the church became known as Euclid Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1919-1920, the Euclid Avenue and Epworth Memorial congregations merged, creating the Epworth-Euclid Methodist Church at East 107th Street and Chester Avenue. In 2010, First United Methodist Church and Epworth-Euclid United Methodist Church merged to become University Circle United Methodist Church. The collection consists of advertisements, agreements, annual reports, appraisals, attendance records, audits, budgets, bulletins, bylaws, certificates, charters, church histories, committee records, constitutions, contracts, correspondence, deeds, drawings, estates and bequests, financial records and statements, floor plans, guest books, handbooks, inventories, ledgers, legal records, magazine articles, manuals, membership records, memoranda, minutes, newsletters, newspaper articles and clippings, notes, orders of worship/service, pamphlets, programs, publicity records, recipe books, reports, rosters, scrapbooks, sermons, Sunday School records, and wills.
