Children's Sermons In Stories, Julius Fischbach

Fischbach, Julius, 1894-

The Preface states that “The stories presented in this collection were given to the children of the First Baptist Church, Lansing, Michigan, during the morning worship programs” (p. 7).

The sermons were delivered outside Appalachia, but Fischbach has significant ties to the region, so they can be included in the Library.
