Archivo: Aimee Semple McPherson-AngelusTemple Plaque 1923

Description: Aimee Semple McPherson in front of a dedication plaque installed in a column at the newly opened Angelus Temple in 1923. The main inscription on the plaque reads "Dedicated onto the cause of INTER-DENOMINATIONAL and World Wide EVANGELISM." Aimee Semple McPherson intended the Angelus Temple as both a place of worship and an ecumenical center for persons of all Christian faiths to meet and build alliances. A wide range of clergy and laypeople to include Methodists, Baptists, the Salvation Army, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Adventists, Quakers, Roman Catholics, Mormons and secular civic leaders came to the Angelus Temple. They were welcomed and many made their way to her podium as guest speakers. Eventually, even Rev. Robert P. Shuler, a once robust McPherson critic, was featured as a guest preacher.
