About
the Presbyterian Historical Society
The
mission of the Presbyterian Historical Society as a department of the
Office of the General Assembly
is to serve all levels of the Presbyterian
Church (U.S.A.) in its administrative, legal, and historical needs;
to collect, preserve, and share information relevant to American Presbyterianism;
and to encourage appreciation of the church's heritage.
The
Presbyterian Historical Society is the national archives and historical
research center of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). As the memory of
the Reformed tradition, the PHS uses the lessons of the Church's heritage
to confront the challenges of tomorrow. Headquartered in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, with a records management program at the denomination's headquarters in Louisville,
Kentucky, it serves the church's national agencies, middle governing bodies,
and local congregations as well as scholars and the general public.
