Duffie spent much of his time on the road raising money for campus ministries throughout the state of South Carolina. As a result, the Sunday worship services at the Wesleyan Foundation were cancelled. During this time, Duffie and Lutheran Chaplain Robert Dasher occasionally held services together in Rutledge Chapel, Duffie said. Meanwhile, the Episcopalians, who were at the bottom of the hill on Pickens Street where the Marantha Student Center is today, were thinking of moving closer to campus. Duffie and the chaDlain of the Episcopal Center in the 1970's, Dennis Smith, planned programs and services together for their groups, David Stewart, Episcopal Chaplain at ELM said. "The Episcopals gradually stopped using the building at the bottom of the hill," Stewart said. The Episcopals moved into the Methodist building in 1974, Duffiesaid. The Lutheran Center occupied a home on the corner of Pendleton and Pickens where the Pendleton Street Garage is riAiir lavr tt For several years, the groups had three separate programs in the same building, but worshipped together on Sunday ils Set :shop | ^ Patricia Moorer as chair- J man of the Residential Life J Services committee and \f Dana Morris as chairman of y ! \\ the Judical committee.

"We eventually decided to do things together." In 1980, the actual agreement was signed and the ELM Board was formalized. In 1981, the ELM was chartered with the university, according to the chaplains. All the chaplains agree the arrangement has worked well. "It's the only reasonable way to do campus ministries," Stewart said. "It's a model that ought to be used in more community churches,'' Dasher said. The Christian faith is larger than three demoninations. It's important to let the campus know we are in unity in Christ. That kind of unity can provide healing wherever there is fragmentation." j It also helns students look at their own traditions and I analyze them in a way that's very healthy, Dasher said. "Instead of detracting from the respective traditions, it strengthens them." "We have unity where denominational labels don't get in the way," Duffie said. "By being together, we are able to learn about each other's religious traditions and find that being together encourages people to explore religious traditions," Duffie said. "We appreciate what is good about each other," Stewart said. "It makes for a much more stimulating atmosphere."
