This series includes documents about the project in general, which was funded through the Grand Rapids Area Council for the Humanities. In particular are examples and information on the questionnaire sent to the churches, as well as information on training sessions.

Some correspondence is found here, but correspondence may also be given under the specific church in Series II, unless they are from Linda Samuelson, Director of the GR Area Council for the Humanities, in which case they are with GR Area Council for the Humanities materials.
