David and Naomi Helmuth, a Mennonite missionary couple, worked at the Betania School in Puerto Rico under the Mennonite Board of Missions during the early 1960s. About half of this collection consists of David Helmuth's correspondence with mission board staff, fellow pastors, and other missionaries in Puerto Rico. The collection also holds a small amount of personal correspondence with friends and family.

Although the Helmuths returned to the United States in the late 1960s, David Helmuth continued to work with the mission board through the early 1970s. The collection documents this work as well. Helmuth entered the pastorate in 1982 at First Mennonite Church in Middlebury, Indiana. A small amount of correspondence pertains to this transition.
