Willard Marriott Library Special Collections Shared Ministry in Utah records Shared Ministry in Utah ACCN 1646 11 linear feet 24 boxes 1959-1997 The Shared Ministry in Utah records (1959-1997) consist of documents relating to the operation and activity of Utah's Shared Ministry, a ministry composed of multiple denominations. A majority of the collection focuses on the ministry's involvement with campus life, mainly at the University of Utah. Collection materials are in English.

The Shared Ministry in Utah (1977-1996) was a coalition of Protestant denominations established in 1977 with the goal of cooperating to increase their power in an area where they viwed themselves as a religious minority. Initially the group was a loose partnership between two denominations in 1971, growing to three by 1977, at which time it adopted the name "Shared Ministry." The coalition was particularly focused on community service and ministry to college-aged students and provided programs such as summer camps and leadership training. By the 1990s, the Shared Ministry had grown to six participating denominations: Presbyterian Church USA, United Methodist Church, Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), United Church of Christ, American Baptist Church, and the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The Shared Ministry in Utah dissolved through mutual agreement of the six participating denominations in 1996.

This collection consists of administrative documents such as manuals, minutes, agendas, correspondence, and supplemental research. Additionally contained are collected documents relating to the activity of the ministry such as publicity, financial records, and project documents.

The documents are arranged with administrative documents relating to the operation and management of the organization followed by publicity and special project documents. Research and project documents are organized with composite folders first followed by folders in alphabetical order. All other documents are organized chronologically with undated documents last.
