This is a below average source to use for this purpose. Try to look for some more secondary sources that describe Frank Bartleman (they'll be in books about early Pentecostalism.) JMDoran (talk) 19:10, 25 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Outline:

  • Add Early Life section

Bartleman was born the third of five sons on a farm near Carversville, Pensylvania to Frank Bartleman, a strict German and Roman Catholic immigrant and Margaret (Hellyer) Bartleman, an American-born Quaker of English and Welsh stock. Bartleman worked on his parent's farm until he moved to Philidelphia at age 17. Here, he worked odd jobs and attended Grace Baptist Church, where he was converted on October 15, 1893. The following summer he began formal preparation for full-time ministry at Temple College. He also studied briefly at the Moody Bible Institute. In the following years Bartleman ministered with the Salvation Army, the Wesleyan Mthodists, Pillar of Fire, and Peniel Missions.

On May 2, 1990, Bartleman married Anna Ladd, a Bulgarian woman who had been adopted and raised by American Methodist missionaries to Bulgaria. The Bartlemans had four children together. Their first child, Esther, died shortly after birth and in Frank recommitted his commitment to ministry as a result.

From 1906 to 1908, Bartleman attended prayer meetings led by William J. Seymour prior to the Azusa Street Revival.

  • Add Missionary Works section

After joining Alma White and the Pillar of Fire holiness church in Denver, Bartleman continued the work that became his lifelong mission – working with down-and-outs, alcoholics and wayward girls, mostly in inner city rescue missions. In addition to missionary work in America, Bartleman also ministered in China sometime between 1908 and 1916, joining other Azusa inspired missionaries like Alfred Goodrich Garr.

  • Add to Achievements section
  • Add Bartleman's portrait to page
Hold off on adding Bartleman's portrait. You need to have reproduction permission, and Bartleman's portrait is not free-use. But we might be able to get in touch with an archive to give you permission. JMDoran (talk) 19:10, 25 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
