Scope and content:

The Church Life series documents Creech's work as a United Methodist minister in North Carolina and Omaha, Nebraska. The series contains papers beginning in 1981 from Creech's time at Warsaw United Methodist Church in Warsaw, NC through his defrocking in 1999. The bulk of the series comprises correspondence with parishioners and church officials, media coverage of his time as pastor including his sometimes controversial support of gay rights issues, church newsletters, and printed material. The First Trial and Second Trial subseries document the two church trials held in Nebraska that eventually led to Creech's defrocking in 1999.
