Attendees of the Young People's Alliance, District Convention at the Sleepy Eye Evangelical Church pose in front of the church on the lawn. This movement won approval of the General Conference in 1891. It was the organization which had been designed to bring unification among the young people of the Church, as well as to consolidate the numerous Jugend-Bunds (Youth Leagues) which had formed in Evangelical Association congregations throughout the country. As a youth society, its purpose was the promotion of intellectual, religious, and social culture and to train young people in Christian living and for service in the Church. It served to fill the gap between the Sunday School and the Church.
