The paper focuses on the emergence of the organization sets of three ecumenical disaster recovery organizations. After outlining a model of the emergence of organization sets, it is demonstrated that the three phases in the model-crystallization, recognition, and institutionalization-are associated with specific changes in the characteristics of all three organization sets studied. The changes exhibited concern the size of the organization set, the hierarchical level of boundary personnel, the standardization of interorganizational contacts, and the specialization of boundary positions. The consistency of the model with the open systems perspective on organizations is discussed
