The Archives welcomes your ongoing prayers and support. Financial gifts can be directed to the operations budget via the Rev. Dr. C. Daniel Crews Friends Fund; Technology Fund (computers and software); Book Fund (collection maintenance); or the Endowment Fund (long-term reserves). The Archives depends on volunteer help to sustain services and create access to our resources. We welcome the contribution of collected family records and photographs to continue telling the Moravian story here. We also ask anyone with interest to follow us on social media at Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
