Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph article dated November 10, 1962 partially reads, "A minister shouldn't go to seed and quit growing. Realization of this has led 30 Valley Methodist ministers to form a book club to review and discuss current works centering around the ministry: evangelism, preaching, public and personal relations, and community and world affairs. The book club, which was organized last summer, started on the recommendation of Dr. Stanley McKee, Methodist superintendent of Santa Barbara district, which encompasses most of the San Fernando Valley." Pictured are Rev. David L. Sharpe (standing) with Valley Methodist ministers and their wives (unidentified).
