Voices of the Episcopal Church Women materials now live on the NCDHC website!

The North Carolina Digital Heritage Center is pleased to announce materials from our partners at Saint Augustine’s University [formerly known as Saint Augustine’s College] in Raleigh, NC are now available for viewing and researching purposes. The materials we digitized are a part of the Voices of the Episcopal Church Women project that features women who attended St. Augustine’s University and had a positive impact on their communities. These women participated in the leadership positions at the local Episcopal churches, played roles in activism in Raleigh, had careers in politics, nursing and education to name a few and produced great works of art. There are candid photographs and portraits of the women of Saint Augustine’s University attending classes and church, leading educational instruction, and generally living their lives. Newspaper clippings can be found that detail the work and contributions to their respective communities. There are also audio files where you can hear interviews with some of the women featured in the Voices of the Episcopal Women project. These materials contribute to St. Augustine’s University’s rich history by providing insight into the connections among education, church and community. You can find these materials on the NCDHC website. To see what is happening at St. Augustine’s University these days, visit their website.
