Scope and Content
The survey on the affairs of the continental churches (May 1934) discusses the situation of the Protestant Churches in Germany and their position towards the government. It highlights a particular development - the elections by Church members on parish councils, which would elect the National Synod. These elections were diluted by a rise in enrollment, with new members voting mostly for German Christians, the church supported by the government. The survey also provides an overview of the most prominent churches and movements.
