Series Description:

From the Series:

The names Bowdoin Christian Association and Y.M.C.A. were used interchangeably for a number of years; the association formally became the Bowdoin Christian Association in the late 1920's. The Bowdoin Christian Association carried on many of the activities of the Y.M.C.A., inviting clergy to campus, conducting bible study, and leading discussion groups on various aspects of Christianity. From 1954 to 1962 the organization was known as the Bowdoin Interfaith Forum, and from the 1970's, as the Bowdoin Christian Fellowship. Despite the name changes, the aim of the organization remains the formation of a close-knit community of Christians and those interested in learning more about Christianity through music, bible study, prayer and fellowship. The series contains correspondence, flyers, newspaper clippings, programs, and other printed material.

Acknowledgment of non-neutrality

The George J. Mitchell Department of Special Collections & Archives, like all archives and special collections libraries, is the creation of human beings who have collected, organized, and described things in ways that reflect personal, cultural, societal, and institutional biases. Although we strive to preserve and present collections in a manner that is respectful to the individuals and communities who create, use, and are represented in the collections, we acknowledge that our systems are neither neutral nor perfect. We encourage you to let us know if you encounter materials, descriptive language, or practices that are offensive or harmful, particularly those for which inadequate context or warning is offered. We are committed to modifying and updating our descriptive practices to use respectful and inclusive terminology and appreciate your help in this work. We look forward to supporting you in your research and learning together.
