MERGED with The Pentecostal Assemblies of the World - 1918
SPLIT BIGTIME - 3 movements: The Apostolic Churches of Jesus Christ, The Pentecostal Ministerial Alliance, and Emmanuel's Church in Jesus Christ - 1925
MERGED TOGETHER - The Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ - 1927
MERGE - The Pentecostal Assemblies of Jesus Christ - 1931
MERGE - United Pentecostal Church International - 1945
I guess we're both right. Just depends how far back we want to go! Lots of merging and splitting in Pentecost history!

And, if I remember correctly,
--after the formation of the PAJC in 1931, many African American ministers left that group, revived the PAW charter, and continue today as the PAW.
--after the PAJC/PCI merger (or some would say hostile takeover of the PCI by the PAJC) some of the PAJC ministers maintained the PAJC charter and that organization still exists today. Their headquarters are about an hour away from where I live in Ohio.
