The collection also includes images of Episcopal congregations and ministry, including photographs of Camp Tuttle, an outdoor ministry in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah, that offers youth summer camps. The collection also contains images depicting visits from religious leaders such as Anglican Bishop Benjamin Nzimbi and Wilson Baganizi, Archdeacon of the Church of Uganda.
