About This Item
1st Edition . Soft cover. Good/No Jacket. Softcover, Good or better condition, rare brochure on the Crusade for Christ movement in the mid 1950s, here with schedules, photos, text, testimonials, opinions, 56pps, In the late 1950s, under the leadership of Myron Augsburger, featured in this brochure, CLTE began holding meetings in large urban auditoriums as well as tents. Renamed Crusade for Christ, the operation elicited interdenominational sponsorship. The summer of 1958 began with a city-wide campaign in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, followed by another in Fort Wayne, Indiana in August. A March 1959 series in Convention Hall, Hutchinson, Kansas was sponsored by 70 churches in the city together with the Christian Business Men's Association, Youth for Christ, and the Gideons organization. In January 1959, the parent organization modified its name to Christian Laymen's Evangelical Association, since it was no longer holding meetings in tents, and the public name of the meetings became Augsburger Crusades. In 1962 the organization disbanded, the tent was sold, and the monies distributed to Mennonite missions. The last Brunk campaign was held in Landisville, Pennsylvania in July 1982, after which the tent and equipment were sold, and a foundation was formed to allocate the proceeds to continuing evangelistic work.
