The Students' League of Many Nations

This photo is from the 1928 Theologue. The Students' League of Many Nations began on Thanksgiving Day, November 1922. It became known as the "greatest one night service on the platform" during its ministry. The group traveled under the leadership of Dr. John A. Davis, and in later years under the direction of the Rev. M. C. Patterson, witnessing for Christ. The 1935 Theologue says of the group, "The spiritual results cannot be estimated, only time and eternity can reveal them." The League traveled nationally and internationally, sharing the Gospel, and each student spoke about their own heritage.

The 1926 Theologue tells that "on the first southern trip, President Coolidge received the students at the White House. Senators, judges, and governors have heard this service, and recommend it very highly."

The League ended in the 1950's -- however, its testimony and rich impact upon lives remains uniquely engraved upon the hearts of people around the world.
