Historical Background
Note: The events described in the chronology below, large public meetings, incorporations, etc. provide a framework for the history of Fellowship Foundation (more accurately the prayer group movement) but do not really capture its nature. From its beginning, Abraham Vereide and other leaders were determined that the movement not become a formal organization but carry out its objective through personal, trusting, informal, unpublicized contact between people. Although at times (particularly in the 1960s) tending very close to the kind of organization, boards and structures found in other Christian organizations, the movement has managed to reinvent itself continually to stay true to its original principles. .
1934 Abraham Vereide, Methodist conference evangelist and former associate general director of Goodwill Industries, led a month of evangelistic meetings in San Francisco, which included regular breakfast prayer meetings of business leaders at the Pacific Union Club.
April 1935 Vereide pulled together a group of local businessmen to pray about perceived IWW and Socialist subversion and corruption in Seattle, Washington's municipal government. Group began to meet regularly and expanded to include government officials, labor leaders, etc. Other groups developed throughout the state, loosely coordinated by Vereide. Other early leaders in the movement were J. N. Davis, J. G. Kennedy, Carl Christopherson, William Day, and William St. Clair.
1937 Two hundred nine prayer breakfast groups had been organized throughout Seattle.
1940 Prayer breakfast for new governor Arthur Langlie attended by three hundred men from all over the state of Washington. Vereide traveled throughout the Pacific Northwest and later around the country, helping to develop similar groups. The idea of the groups, which were nondenominational, was to bring together civic and business leaders informally to share a meal, study the Bible and develop relationships of trust and support and to promote Christian principles. The Seattle group met every Thursday morning at the Washington Athletic Club.
Early 1940s City Chapel was incorporated by the Seattle group and served originally as the national center for the movement, with Vereide as the executive director. An office was established at 311-312 Douglas Building in Seattle.
1941 Vereide talked with members of Congress about their starting a regular fellowship group.
1942 U. S. House prayer breakfast group started. Emphasis, as with other groups, was on low key, informal fellowship and encouragement, with little publicity.
1942 Sixty breakfast groups by this time in major cities around the country, including Chicago, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Vancouver, Washington.
Probably in 1942, Vereide began publishing a monthly newsletter called The Breakfast Luncheon Fireside and Campus Groups that contained a Bible study to be used by the groups, as well as information about activities of different groups and national meetings. The organization continued to publish a newsletter (sometimes more than one) through the years, although, like the organization, it went through many name changes. Among the names were The Breakfast Groups" Informer (ca. 1945-1946), The Breakfast Groups (ca. 1944-1953), International Christian Leadership Bulletin (ca. 1953-1954), Bulletin of International Christian Leadership (ca. 1954-1956), Christian Leadership (ca. 1957-1961), ICLeadership Letter (1961-1966), International Leadership Letter (ca. 1967), Leadership Letter (ca. 1963-1970).
1943 U. S. Senate prayer breakfast group started.
1943 National Committee for Christian Leadership (NCCL) incorporated to provide a minimal coordination for the movement, NCCL office moved from Seattle to Chicago (first to 505 Old Colony Building, then to 1208 Republic Building, 209 South State Street).
1944 Name changed to International Christian Leadership (ICL).
1/1944 Vereide met Mrs. Marian (Hoffman) Johnson on a visit to Washington. She later opened her large home at 6523 Massachusetts Avenue to the ICL for conferences and social gatherings. This became the group's first Fellowship House. Two important participants throughout the group's work in Washington were James Bell and Paul Temple.
12/1944 Vereide family moved to a Washington, DC suburb and the NCCL opened its office in the city at 744 Jackson Place, N.W.
1945 Fellowship Foundation incorporated to accept donations and property for the group.
1/19/1945 First prayer breakfast in Washington, DC, for members of the U. S. Congress
4/16/1945 A special prayer meeting of government leaders was held to pray for the nation after President Roosevelt's death. Group was led by Senators H. Alexander Smith, Lister Hill and publisher David Lawrence.
11/1/1945 Moved to new headquarters at 2324 Massachusetts Avenue, NW in Washington.
1/13-16/1946 Representatives from the breakfast groups, the Gideons, the Christian Businessmen's Committee and others met for a prayer conference on national needs.
1946 Vereide visited Europe and talked with Christian there about beginning ICL groups in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, France and Germany. ICL agreed to cooperate with the British Victory Fellowship in Great Britain. Gustav Adolf Gedat of Germany was deeply involved in the activities of the groups in Europe from this time until his death in 1971. Throughout the years, one important aspect of the movement was the travel of its associates throughout the world to establish personal contacts with leaders in most countries of the world.
January 1947 Four day conference in Washington, DC resulted in the formation of International Council for Christian Leadership (ICCL). There were representatives from the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Norway, Hungary, Egypt and China. ICCL was an umbrella group for the various national fellowships. ICCL was formally incorporated as a separate organization in 1953. ICL and ICCL were governed by different board of directors, but there was a coordinating committee consisting of four each from members of ICCL's board and the ICL's executive committee. Eventually Fellowship Foundation was created by the two organizations to maintain Fellowship House in Washington, DC as a spiritual service center.
1948 Alicia Abrahamsen, widowed daughter of Abraham Vereide, became hostess of Fellowship House and in later years helped organize women's fellowship groups in Washington and other cities.
1949 ICL's budget for 1949 - $32,700.
1949 Wallace Haines was sent to Europe by Vereide to represent ICL at a gathering of German Christians at Castle Mainau. Haines became the European representative of ICL.
1951 ICL's budget for 1951 - $34,000.
1952 Karl Leyasmeyer became the ICL's field representative in 1950 and continued with the organization for several years, speaking mainly at colleges and universities. Leyasmeyer also gave anti-communist lectures and produced the film Militant Liberty under ICL auspices. Other ICL field representative in the 1950s were Robert B. Doing, J. Edwin Orr, Robert Pierce, John W. Young, Wallace Haines, and Richard Halverson. The budget for ICL for 1952 was $39,000.
5/22-25/1952 International Conference of the ICCL in Noordwijk, Netherlands.
2/5/1953 First Presidential Prayer Breakfast held in the United States. Joint conference of the ICL and ICCL held from February 5-9. Senator Frank Carlson, an advisor to President Eisenhower and a participant in the ICL's program, played a prominent part in helping to organize this meeting and he remained an important participant in the group's work. The members of Congress involved in the congressional prayer breakfasts remained the prime organizers of the annual Presidential Prayer Breakfasts, which included people involved in prayer groups in other sections of the legislative, judicial and executive branches, as well as ambassadors, civic leaders from around the country and the world, and many guests not involved in the prayer breakfast movement. For many years, the Presidential Prayer Breakfast would be one of several events at this time of the year sponsored by ICL, others being seminars, workshops and similar meetings aimed at people more directly involved in the movement. These other events began to be discontinued in the 1970s. The Presidential Prayer Breakfast was also often called the National Prayer Breakfast and this latter eventually became the official title.
May, 1954 Two hundred forty delegates attended the ICCL's World Conference in Noordwijk, Netherlands. Countries represented included the United States, Germany, France, Great Britain, Finland, Italy, Netherlands, South Korea, Japan, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, and Greece.

1972 Name change to Fellowship Foundation. After consultations among leaders of the movement, including Coe, Halverson, Senator Mark Hatfield, and others, the organization was redesigned to be even more low key and to provide a central office where many dozen (one hundred fifty in 1985) of ministries could be administered. Each ministry had a contact person who was the liaison person with the Foundation. The Foundation mainly dealt with seeing that the goals of the ministry were in line with the overall goals of the Foundation and that monies were spent for the purposes for which they were budgeted, without getting involved in personnel and administrative matters of each ministry. In effect, the group adopted an even lower profile, serving as a channel of communication and a catalyst. Its three major interests came to be developing personal relationships between leaders and encouraging them in prayer, Bible study and personal Christian growth, youth work, and service to the poor. The group continued to help set up each year's National Prayer Breakfast, but most of its activities were done with no or very little publicity. This, along with the continual effort to avoid creating any kind of large, hierarchical ministry, grew out of a desire to avoid the rigidity that came with organization, to avoid public controversy, and to be as open as humanly possible to the leading of the Holy Spirit. The behind-the-scenes consultations, prayer fellowships, and support for programs in line with the objectives of the group were the real ministry of Fellowship Foundation.

Scope and Content
[NOTE: In the Scope and Content description, the notation "Folder 2-6" means Box 2, Folder 6.]
The materials in this collection include a wide variety of documents. such as correspondence, reports, memos, newspaper and magazine clippings, programs, speeches, prayers, Congressional Record excerpts, and other items. The materials describe primarily the development of the prayer breakfast fellowship movement from its early days in Seattle in the mid 1930s down almost to the present and particularly its development in Washington, DC, among members of the different branches of government and civic and business leaders. A significant volume of material deals with the interaction between leading members of the fellowship, such as Abraham Vereide, Richard Halverson, Douglas Coe, Fred Heyn, Mark Hatfield, Harold Hughes, Frank Carlson and prayer fellowships in other states and other countries. Besides materials relating directly to the fellowship, many files contain correspondence, clippings, speeches, etc., concerned generally with the relation between morality and politics; the place of religion, especially Christianity, in public life; and, increasingly after the 1970s, the need for assistance to the poor of the cities.
Note: Because the Fellowship Foundation, like International Christian Leadership before it, is a formal organizational manifestation of what is really a much larger, more informal, more amorphous group, this guide refers to the group throughout as "the fellowship," uncapitalized, except when referring to a formal organization.
Because the staff of the Archives was not able to recreate the original order of these files, the staff imposed an order on the materials. The ten series of the collection were created to reflect somewhat existing patterns in the material and also to make it easier to find materials on particular subjects. However, the researcher should be aware that there is great overlapping between files. Therefore, for example, information on the 1968 Presidential Prayer Breakfast may be found in the District of Columbia files in the States series, the 1968 correspondence in the National Prayer Breakfast (NPB) series, and in the 1968 correspondence in the Vereide and Coe series, etc. Similarly, correspondence to or from Coe, Halverson and Vereide can be found all throughout the collection and not just in their series. In almost all of the series, files are arranged alphabetically and then chronologically. The major exception would be the files in the National Prayer Breakfast series, which is arranged chronologically by the date of the prayer breakfast and then alphabetically by the title of the folder. Following are brief descriptions of the series:
I. State Correspondence. Boxes 1-175. The files cover all fifty states and the District of Columbia. Correspondence is mainly between workers of the fellowship in Washington, DC and fellowships in various states and cities. The correspondence deals with plans for trips of staff members to visit state groups, help arranging speakers for governor or mayor prayer breakfasts, reports on prayer fellowship activities throughout the state, arrangement for invitations to the national prayer breakfast or various social projects. Some of the larger cities have separate files and these are filed with the state in which the city is located. Thus, the files for Philadelphia are filed with those for Pennsylvania and the file for Philadelphia 1959-1960 comes before the files for Pennsylvania 1960.
II. International Correspondence. Boxes 176-266. Materials are arranged by country or region and are concerned largely with either contacts between members of the prayer breakfast fellowship in Washington and those leaders of the indigenous movement in a particular country or with trips to various Christian communities or individuals in a particular country or with suggested people of a particular country to invite to the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington or some similar event or with the activities of the prayer fellowships of a particular country. Up until 1970, there is a good deal of information relating to the work of the International Council of Christian Leadership in various folders. The original folder title were kept as much as possible, so often information on a country might be kept in more than one file. For example, information on the Republic of China can be found under both Taiwan and China or a person looking for information on Sri Lanka should also look under Ceylon. The Puerto Rico and Virgin Island files are here, as are files on Latin America, South America, the Middle East, South Pacific, West Africa, Southwest Africa and similar regions. There are no files for Great Britain, but a great deal of information on England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland. All the general Canadian correspondence is together, followed by folders of correspondence with people in specific provinces. These folders are arranged alphabetically by provincial name. The folders for the Netherlands includes information on the ICCL World Conferences held in that country and the Bermuda files include documents relating to the Fellowship's regular conferences there. There is also one large folder on the United Nations.
As an example of the kind of materials that can be found in these files, folder 242-46 contains extensive correspondence with evangelist and author Corrie ten Boom about her activities in the decade after World War II. The correspondence is especially rich about her refugee relief and evangelism work in Germany after the war (during part of which she was sponsored by International Council of Christian Leadership), but there is also information about her visits to other parts of the world, as the United States, Israel, and Africa. There are a few items from her are in box 243. Folder 242-47 and all of the folders in box 243 contains correspondence with Queen (later Princess) Wilhelmina of the Netherlands about her work with the ICCL, of which she served as honorary president for a time. They reflect her active involvement in the work of ICCL, especially in international meetings held in the Netherlands. Folder 243-5 contains several of her Christmas cards to Veriede, which included prints of her paintings.III. National Prayer Breakfast. Boxes 267-346. These files are arranged by year, with relatively little for the earlier years and much fuller documentation for the later. Additional information on the early years can be found in boxes 349-352 (labeled "Annual Conference"). The files for 1970 are partially out of place, with some in boxes 270-272 and the rest in boxes 344-346. The National Prayer Breakfast (also called the Presidential Prayer Breakfast in the 1960s) was sponsored by the House and Senate prayer groups and was coordinated by the staff of the fellowship. In the early years of ICL, the group would have an annual conference at the beginning of each year in Washington when people would come to share stories about their faith, encourage each other, and meet other members of the fellowship. The prayer breakfast was one of the events held as part of this annual meeting. It quickly came to get the lion's share of the national press and broadcast media attention. Attended by politicians, civil servants, ambassadors, business leaders, educators, and prominent people of all types, it was certainly the best known of all the fellowship's events and the most atypical. It continued to be a good means to introduce people to the fellowship's purposes and methods. For most years there is information on arrangements, invitations accepted and declined, programs, seminars held after the breakfast (often over several days), copies of talks given, press coverage, etc. See also the files on "Annual conferences" and "Prayer Breakfasts" in the General series and the reports in the clippings and the Congressional Records in Clippings Series. Many of the audio tapes and both of the films in the collection are of the Prayer Breakfast or the seminars that followed.
IV. General. Boxes 347-491. This series contains a vast amount of information, not only on all aspects of the fellowship's work, but also reports and information on other Christian organizations, and a wide variety of reports on social, economic and political events of interest to members of the Fellowship. If the cross reference of this collection lists the name of a person, place, organization or subject which is not directly referred to elsewhere in this guide, that probably means that there are one or more folders with that name on it in this series. However, there are exceptions. Conrad Hilton, for example, has no folder with his name but there is information about his participation in the National Prayer Breakfasts in the folders in box 349.
Folders in this section are alphabetized by the key word in the title, which is not necessarily the first one. Here are some of the rules used in alphabetizing the folders: All folders whose title contain the words "Annual Conference" are alphabetized under "A"; all folder whose title contain the words "Frank Carlson" or "Charles Colson" or "Core" or "Conference" are alphabetized under "C" (except for Annual Conference, which is under "A"). Files for the Bermuda conferences, then, or World Conferences are together under "C". All folders whose title contain the words "Fellowship House" are alphabetized under "F". All folders that contain the words "Wallace Haines" or "Harold Hughes" or alphabetized under "H". All folders with the words "Jaycees" or "JCs" or "Junior Chamber of Commerce" are alphabetized under "J". All folders with the words "Prayer Breakfast" in the title, including "Governor's Prayer Breakfasts" or "Mayors Prayer Breakfast" are alphabetized under "P". All folders with the words "Albert Quie" are alphabetized under "Q". All folders with the word "Trip" in the title, which include the reports on visits to Christian communities in various parts of the world made by the fellowship over several decades, are alphabetized under "T". Often, of course, material by or about a topic or individual is not filed under their name. Thus correspondence to Mother Teresa is in box 411, folder 2, and information about Underground Evangelism is in Sergei Kourdakov's in folder 423-5 as well as under the folder with the organization's name in box 481.
The headquarters of the fellowship was known as Fellowship House. This was not so much an office building as a place for seminars, dinners, Bible studies, and informal meetings of all types. This section contains several folders of information on the administration and activities of Fellowship House.
There are several folders on Core, which is the name given to the group of fellowship leaders that got together regularly to pray and plan the fellowship's activities. Similarly, several files with "Group" or "Groups" in the title are brought together under "G," these contain information on the early days of the fellowship and the formation of prayer groups around the country. Except for Vereide, Halverson and Douglas Coe (for each of whom, there is a series) all the people involved prominently in the fellowship at one time or another, such as James Bell, Frank Carlson, Chuck Colson, Billy Graham, Wallace Haines, Mark Hatfield, Fred Heyn, Karlis Leyasmeyer, Albert Quie, and Paul Temple have one or more folders of material in this section.
There is a particularly large amount of material by and about Harold Hughes in boxes 409-411, including information about his political career in the Senate, his involvement in the fellowship, his decision to resign from the Senate to enter full time Christian work, and a manuscript of a book he wrote about his life.
Most of the fellowship's activities revolved around developing small fellowship groups among people of similar interests, groups that could serve as means for personal spiritual growth and for influencing the larger community. There were also prayer breakfasts that met only once a year, but served to introduce people to the work of the fellowship and to the small prayer groups. Prayer groups or prayer breakfast groups were probably the most prominent example. Reference to various prayer groups can be found in practically every folder. All the folders with "prayer" in the title have been brought together in boxes 450-458, including files about the congressional wives group, the governors' prayer breakfasts, the mayors' prayer breakfasts and the senate prayer fellowship. Information on the governors' and mayor's breakfasts can also be found in many of the state files in the state correspondence series. Other files contain information about prayer fellowships among Native Americans.
The Bermuda conferences (documented, among other places, in boxes 371 and 372), the Leadership seminars described in documents in boxes 426-429 and meetings held at the Windy Gap, North Carolina, retreat center are additional examples of meetings used to introduce people to the work of the fellowship. Other fellowship conferences, such as their world conferences - their periodical meeting of leaders from the fellowship in various countries- are described in boxes 372-378.
There are many topical files throughout this series, with titles like "communism," or "salvation", etc. These contain clippings, speeches, notes, etc. on these topics and apparently were used as reference materials by the Fellowship House staff. There are also several folders in boxes 472 and 473 containing speeches given at various fellowship events. Other manuscripts of speeches can be found in the files labeled "speeches" in box 472 and 473. There is a translation of the Bible into Mongolian in box 439.
For much of its history, particularly in the 1960s and '70s, the fellowship had a close relationship with the Junior Chamber of Commerce or Jaycees, both the United States and the International branches. The groups planned various joint events together and supplied speakers for each other's conferences. Material on this relationship is scattered throughout the collection, but a great deal is in boxes 415-419.
Starting in the early 1970s, members of the fellowship became more interested in the needs, physical and spiritual, of the poor of the inner city and in reconciling blacks and whites. The Fellowship Foundation supported various projects to deal with social problems. Some of these are described in the files in section IX. But there is also material in this series, including the folders dealing with the Vision to Action project in boxes 482-484.
Note: The types of materials and the topics covered in the Vereide, Halverson and Coe sections described below, are often duplicated in other parts of this collection, such as the General series.
V. Abraham Vereide. Boxes 495-505.
