Churches United of the Quad City Area records
Abstract
In 1961, churches in Rock Island County, Illinois, and Scott County, Iowa, merged to form the "Council of Churches of Scott and Rock Island Counties." In 1971, Roman Catholic and Orthodox congregations were added to the group, and in 1990 the group was renamed "Churches United of the Quad City Area.” Churches United currently consists of over 138 churches of over 20 different branches of Christianity in the Quad Cities. Materials in this collection include the organization’s articles of incorporation, minutes, correspondence, proposals, conference papers, biographical sketches, registration papers, rosters, news clippings, blank stationery, audiocassette tapes, membership cards, miscellaneous official papers.
