Historical Background
| Conference name | International Congress on World Evangelization; also referred to as Lausanne Congress, Lausanne '74 or ICOWE | |
| Conference venue | Palais de Beaulieu in Lausanne, Switzerland. Lausanne was selected as the Congress site in October 1972. The Congress office was opened in April 1973. | |
| Conference dates | July 16-25, 1974 | |
| Conference theme | "Let the earth hear His voice" | |
| Conference background | Plans announced by Billy Graham in August 1972 to hold an international congress on evangelism as a follow-up to the 1966 World Congress on Evangelism held in Berlin | |
| Conference purpose | To gather (by invitation only) the international leaders of evangelical Protestant Christians together for strategic planning, inspiration, and fellowship | |
| Attendance figures | Approximately 4000 participants, observers, news media, and guests | |
| Conference figures | ||
| Honorary chairman | Billy Graham | |
| Executive chairman | A. Jack Dain | |
| Director | Don Hoke, American missionary and educator in Japan | |
| Program Committee chairman | Leighton Ford | |
| Program committee associate director | Paul Little | |
| Other conference staff | see Addendum which follows Provenance section of this guide | |
| Governing body | Board of Conveners consisting of 164 Christian leaders who had gathered at Graham's invitation | |
| Executive body | Planning committee of thirty-one headed by Sydney Bishop A. Jack Dain to provide guidelines for what the Congress was going to do and whom it was going to invite | |
| Administrative committee | An eight member administrative committee was formed to act in emergencies and between committee meetings; subcommittees for finances and film were also formed | |
| Financial support | The Congress was financed partially by gifts and partially by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA). The BGEA also provided aid by allowing several of its employees to work full- or part-time for the Congress as staff members or consultants. | |
| Post-conference resources | The Congress compendium, consisting of both the texts of pre-Congress working papers and plenary session remarks, was published under the title Let the Earth Hear His Voice by World Wide Publications in 1975. Reaching All was a six-cassette series of reports, excerpts and interviews developed for commercial distribution and radio broadcast. An eighteen-cassette series of conference plenary sessions was produced by World Wide Publications for commercial distribution. | |
| Other significant information | ||
| One of the major tasks of the staff was preparing lists of whom to invite based on suggestions submitted by members of the convening committee and others. | ||
| Paul Little worked with the program committee and its chairman Leighton Ford in planning the events and speaking schedule of the meeting, determining what topics would be addressed and by whom. | ||
| Along with the major plenary addresses (including the opening and closing addresses by Graham), there were Bible studies, demonstrations of evangelistic methods, small group discussions, reports on aspects of the theology and strategy of evangelism, reports on the situation of the church in various geographical locations, debates by citizens and workers on the strategies necessary for particular nations, an evangelistic meeting for the general public held in the city's stadium (Laustade '74), and the signing by a large number of the participants of the Lausanne Covenant, a statement intended to define the necessity, responsibilities and goals of spreading the Gospel. | ||
| Also important to the Congress's goals were the consultations held in 1973 on how best to continue the Congress's goals after the meeting. From these meetings came the first plans for the Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization. The process of selecting members of a continuation committee was begun at the Congress. Eventually, forty-nine people were selected to plan for future consultation and congresses as needed. Rev. Leighton Ford was chosen as chairman of this committee and Rev. Gottfried Osei-Mensah as Executive Secretary. | ||
| Following the Congress, the staff closed the Lausanne office. Final tasks included sending out the final news releases, preparing the papers and tapes delivered at the Congress for publication and sale, answering mail, and shipment of most of the office files to the BGEA office in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The office was officially closed at the end of October 1974. | ||
Scope and Content
Series I: Paper records
Arrangement: Alphabetical according to folder titles
Date Range: 1972-1974
Volume: 3.0 cubic feet
Boxes: 1-6
Type of documents: Duplicated materials such as forms, news releases, form letters, and other
official publications, created in preparation for, during, and after the Lausanne Congress.
Notes: Primarily duplicated materials created in preparation for, during, and after the Lausanne
Congress. The procedure books and press books have been removed from the notebooks in
which they were received and refoldered in order to make them more usable. Correspondence
related to the Congress can be found in the records of the Lausanne Committee for World
Evangelization (BGC Archives Collection 46); the Lausanne Committee emerged as the
organization to continue the Congress's impact, coordinate ongoing meetings, and encourage
evangelism efforts.
Exceptional items: Two items are particularly helpful reference tools on the Congress. Folder
1-2 contains the printed booklet listing all the registrants at the meeting. Each entry includes a
registration number, an initial indicating the registrant's language and country of origin;
individuals not attending as recognized participants (participants were invited to the Congress
and given voting privileges in Congress deliberations) were also identified with a letter
C = convenor, G = guest, O = observer, P = press/media, S = Congress staff, V = visitor, and
Z = steward). Folder 3-6 contains the Congress program book, prepared in four languages. The
book includes: general Congress information; a detailed outline of the Congress schedule, noting
all major speakers; a list of smaller sessions; and an index listing various program personnel and
Congress staff.
Texts of certain papers to be presented to the entire Congress were printed in advance and distributed to the participants for review and response. Folder 1-1 contains these texts for the Biblical Foundation Papers, presented by Peter Beyerhaus, Henri Blocher, Michael Green, Rene Padilla, Howard Snyder, John Stott, and Susumu Uda. Folder 1-5 similarly contains the texts for the Issue Strategy Papers. The authors of these papers were Samuel Escobar, Donald McGavran, George Peters, Francis Schaeffer, and Ralph Winter. Each of these presentations and others were recorded at the Congress. The researcher should refer to the Location Record for Audio Tapes of this guide for a complete list of these.
A newspaper, Lausanne, was printed daily during the Congress, containing information and instructions for Congress participants, articles, reports and miscellaneous bits of information. The nine issues were prepared in four languages (English, French, German, and Spanish) and are located in OS file 24.
The majority of the collection consists of press books, procedure books and program books from the Congress. Folders 1-7 through 2-3 contain the contents of the two-part press books. These consist of the news releases prepared prior to and during the Congress in a variety of languages; the Information Bulletin, a newsletter prepared before the Congress, also in several language editions; a list of news media corp and news staff at the Congress news center; a glossary of religious terms for journalists; memos to news media corp; and Billy Graham's statement to the press.
Folders 2-4 through 3-3 contain the contents of the two-part procedure books. These consist of all the duplicated materials (stationary, forms, staff memos, promotional materials, mass mailings, lists of committees, memos, etc.) produced before and during the Congress. These closely follow the procedure book format used by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (see Collection 16), whose representation on the Congress staff and financial backing are evidences of its contribution to and leadership of the Congress.
Several items among these bear mentioning. Folder 2-5 includes a biographical sketch of Jack Dain, a document on Congress subsidies, a timetable of preparation, the agenda of a 1973 Planning Committee meeting, a communication report prepared by Warwick Olson for a 1973 Administrative Committee meeting, and suggested responses to criticism about the Congress. In addition, many of the letters duplicated went out under the signature of Donald Hoke, the Congress director.
Folders 2-6 through 3-3 contain records relating to participants, observers, speakers, and interpreters, prayer, travel arrangements, Laustade '74 (the evangelistic Sunday rally), and post-congress matters, largely consisting of correspondence between the congress office in Lausanne with participants to the Congress. Folders 3-1 and 3-2 include all forms of material related to the Lausanne '74 meeting, ranging from balloons to posters to handouts. Folder 3-3 contains miscellaneous materials such as tickets to Congress plenary sessions, badges (speakers, conveners, staff, etc.), and parking stickers and "I speak this (language)" tags. Also included in folder 3-3 are drafts of the Lausanne Covenant, a general outline of the closing address of Billy Graham on July 25, 1974, and instruction sheets for visitors, special and day guests and wives in the Congress. Two sections of the books, "Pastors Conference" (folder 2-7) and "Book Stall" (folder 3-2) were received empty.
The program notebook (folders 3-4 and 3-5) contains various records of the program committee including a list of possible speakers, tentative program arrangements, plenary session study papers in four languages with forms attached for suggestions and criticisms, letters to speakers, forms containing guidelines for recommending speakers, and a biographical information sheet. Also in this notebook are: tentative list of discussion group topics, reports of the discussion held during the Congress by national strategy groups as to the best way of evangelizing their particular countries and a tentative list of demonstrations of evangelistic methods. Form correspondence sent to conveners, regional advisors and advisory committees, is also included, sent by Paul Little, the Congress program director.
Two items were provided for the participants as resources. Among these were a collection of "country profiles," brief yet comprehensive summaries of the status of Christianity in many countries, prepared by Missions Advanced Research and Communications Center (MARC). Arranged alphabetically in folders 1-3 and 1-4, they include reports on the following countries, provinces or people groups: Andhra Pradesh (India), Argentina, Arumachal Pradesh (India), Assam (India), Australia, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Burma, Cambodia, Canada, Colombia, Ecuador, Egypt, Ethiopia, Finland, France, Ghana, Greece, Gujarat (India), Hawaii, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Karen People (Burma), Kenya, Korea, Lebanon, Laos, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, North Africa, Norway, Oceania, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Panama, Pakistan, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Swaziland, Taiwan, United States, Vietnam, and the World. The second item was another MARC production, Unreached Peoples, a directory of people groups in the world which have had little contact with Christianity.
Several miscellaneous items are also included in the collection (folder 1-6), among them an information pamphlet relating to the creation and role of the Lausanne Continuation Committee, a map of Lausanne, and a promotional brochure for sponsors of "Third World" participants.
Series II: Audio tapes (for a complete list, see the Location Record below)
Arrangement: Into five subseries:
Date Range: 1974
Notes: The first subseries includes not only the recordings through the plenary podium
microphone but also the recordings from the translation channels in German, Indonesian,
Japanese, French, Spanish and Chinese. The second subseries is the cassette set produced by
World Wide Publications (a BGEA subsidiary) for commercial distribution. The Reaching All
series appears to have been intended for both commercial distribution as a cassette series and as
radio broadcast. The non-plenary session recordings in subseries D appear to have been the
source of excerpts used in the Reaching All series. The final subseries consists of the masters
used to produce World Wide Publications casssette series in subseries B.
