LIVING LEGACIES PROJECT

As part of our efforts to 'Preserve the Past', the Canadian Churches of Christ Historical Society (CCCHS) is launching an initiative called Living Legacies. The idea is to interview some of our more senior church leaders (preferably on video) asking them questions about themselves, their work and their thoughts, which would then be kept in our archive for posterity. (Church members who aren't officially leaders may also be interviewed as seems fitting.) All of this can even be extended to those who have already passed on by interviewing a surviving spouse, child(ren) and/or other family members or close friends.

 

How you can help:

 

We are currently in the process of putting together a sample list of questions that can be used to get things started. Obviously, no list of questions is going to serve each interview perfectly. Some may not apply, others may not be on the list. But having something to start with might make the project a lot easier for some. If you would like to make some suggestions on questions that you think might be of interest, please contact us*.

 

We are also compiling a list of people whom we would like to see interviewed. If you feel that this project would benefit from an interview with certain individuals, please contact us* with their names so that we might be able to make this happen.

 

If you would like to conduct an interview, please let that also be known*. (Please do not embark on such a project on our behalf without communicating with us first.)

 

*You may contact us by reaching out to any board member (listed on the ccchs.ca web site, Members tab) or by sending an email to ccchs1@gmail.com.

 

Your partnership in this initiative would be most appreciated.
