Biography/Administrative History
The Southern California Church and Christian Non-Profit Organizations Material contains bulletins from local churches and
retreat centers, articles on religion, and religious ephemera from Southern California. Former Fuller Seminary archivist Nancy
Sanders Gower and contributor Glen Dawson created the collection between 2005-2012, taking the idea from former Fuller faculty
member Dr. Wilbur Smith. Dr. Smith collected pamphlets of many religious groups in California in preparation for a book he
proposed on, The Christian Traveler in California. The book was never published but his collection of pamphlets, and an outline
of proposed chapters, is part of the Wilbur Smith Collection.
