Excellent work Maggie! That looks like a good structure and those are the best sources available. (Check the files in your group on Canvas to get you started.) Sister Aimee actually doesn't appear in Estrelda Alexander's book on Azusa Street, so I took that off for you. Get a start on the reading! JMDoran (talk) 17:50, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

The books provided though expansive are not necessarily exhaustive regarding the "Reported Kidnapping" section if interested in researching that. A page with "errata notes" that you can further use to further investigate, I have set up here:
