The Origins of IDES

By Rick Jett Jan. 13, 1991; p. 4 The camera focused in on a skinny little grandfather who had only a thin blanket to cover his body. The combination of civil war, tidal wave, and cyclone had left this grandfather and thousands like him without food and shelter. As the newscaster reported from Bangladesh in 1972, his closing remarks were, “Can anybody help these people?” In Marion, Indiana, a man by the name of Milton B. Bates was watching the telecast. His answer to the newscaster was, “Where is the church of Christ? The church is missing the boat. We should be helping these victims of disaster.”
