When he was just a kid in Bible School (he's about 60 now) my brother-in-law met Bro. Kidson in Houston, TX. He said it was in an old office. I think he said it was like a trip into the past or something like that.

W.E. Kidson was an "old timer" in Oneness Pentecost.

"Elder W.E. Kidson is now, and has been for two decades, recognized as one of the key men in this movement. His remarkable executive ability was early recognized and he was elected to a high official position in the Oneness organization, which through the merging of two main bodies of this persasion is calle the United Pentecostal Church, Incorporated. Brother Kidson filled the position of Secretary for a number of office terms until a few years ago. He is now pastor of a growing church in Houston, Texas, owner of the Herald Publishing House, from whence he publishes a fine Pentecostal paper called "The Herald of Truth!" This paper is enjoying a fine circulation. At a recent revival campaign in Brother Kidson's church, Pentecost was repeated in a remarkable manner, so that throough the laying on of the Evangelist Wm. Branhams' hands, cancers and other incurable diseases were healed, and some blind people had their sight completely restored. When God honors a man's work the conditions of his heart and life must be eminently scriptural."
pages 107, 108 of The Phenomenon of Pentecost by Frank J. Ewart copyright 1947 Herald Publishing House, published by the PPH, St. Louis, MO

There are still some folk in Life Tabernacle that were in that Branham revival. At least one, Sister Smith, was healed.

In 1954, Wiford E. Kidson and about 20 ministers left the UPC and formed an organization that is still in existence.
