     These correspondence files are the field records of Media Ministries' involvement in Puerto Rico from 1947-72. These files were transferred to the Archives in September 1993 by Lowell Hertzler. Much of the materials comes from Lester Hershey, who served in Puerto Rico for many years. A large bulk of the files are from the 1960s. This media program was succeeded by JELAM in 1972. Attached is the list of file titles.
