Title
English: Rev. Mark Matthews posing on sidewalk, Seattle, circa 1910
Description
English:

The Reverend Mark A. Matthews (1867-1940), a southern-born fundamentalist supporter of the Social Gospel movement, came to Seattle in 1902 and became the pastor of Seattle's First Presbyterian Church. Outspoken and active in public debate, he was a staunch proponent of 'Social Christianity,' which combined progressive public social reform with Christian values. While referred to as a 'showman' by some, he backed up his support of social reform by establishing day-care centers, soup kitchens, night classes and other community-oriented services. This image of Rev. Matthews was taken in Seattle, likely shortly after his arrival.
