Herbert Hoover, President of the United States, on this date, 5/23/1932 is reported to have written a letter to the New York Theological Seminary.
He is said to have hoped the school “shall continue its interdenominational work of training Bible inspired preachers, teachers, missionaries and other Christian workers. No institution doing the work this Seminary is doing should be allowed to fail, particularly in times like these.”
How refreshing that a sitting President would be speaking of Bible training, preachers, missionaries, and Christian workers. This was, of course, during what has been called the great depression.
