Sermonette from Fischau, March 6. Author unknown. Photocopy

The papers were processed by Eleonore Aarsen in the Spring of 1998.  Much of the content was in no discernible order, so I rearranged those items.  This includes mostly the church records and sermons.  They are now organized by church employment eras (time periods spent pastoring a certain church), meaning that all items from any given church are together.  The whole collection is divided mainly into personal and professional.  That is why pastoral correspondence and personal correspondence are in their respective categories and not together.  Anything that was in folders, envelopes and bundles upon arrival has been kept together.  The result is that some things seem out of place.  This is especially true in the genealogy collection. Many sermons were used several times.  As a general MLA rule, miscellaneous materials are filed according to last place used (or most recent date).  This means that many sermons written in the 1940s are actually filed in the Emmanuel Mennonite Church era. Items without numbers are not in folders, but filed loosely in the order as listed.

Sixteen notebooks of sermons, handwritten in German and preached by Peter Friesen in Marienthal (Ukraine?) and later in the United States, where Friesen served as a minister in  Wall's Church (Gospel Mennonite Church) in Mountain Lake, Minn.  Peter Friesen was the grandfather of (old) Mennonite Church missionary to India  P. A.  (Peter Abraham) Friesen.

The notebooks are handwritten in German, and most contain a record of where and when the sermon was preached.

A seventeenth notebook, containing what look to be sermon or research notes, may also be found in this collection.
