I received a call from Ann Erickson inquiring about the baptimal date of an individual who had passed away. It was believed that he was baptised in the Pilgrim Lutheran Church for the Deaf of Greater Kansas City. She was asking if he had been baptized and when. I checked the internet and found that this church was in Missouri and that it no longer existed as a Lutheran Church. It is now an all-faiths chapel.

I called the Missouri District Office and found that the Missouri District Archivist is Marvin Huggins at the Synodical Office of CHI. He returned my call and I gave him what information I had and turned it over to him. I will call Ann Erickson back and refer her to Rev Huggins.
