Over the years I have been told of numerous Apostolic ministers who were suppose to have baptized Elvis in Jesus name in the pool at Graceland. My first question would have to be is any of it true? Secondly, how many times was he baptized? Also by whom was he baptized?


The 70's music thread made me think of this for some reason...........

There was a NFCF member (I forgot who) who personaly asked the elderly Oneness Pentecostal minister who was supposed to have baptized Elvis in Jesus name if he did and he said yes.

I believe Elder Jess Dyson was Sis. Margie Becton's (Cleveland) uncle.

Not to mention that when he dropped dead he was on the toilet reading some Eastern religous junk if I remember the news reports correctly. (while his live in girlfriend was just a few feet away asleep in their bed).

I found one website that said he was also planning to become mormon and had set a date for his baptism. I am sure they still held the baptism...............

J. R. (Rex) Dyson was the Memphis pastor (Church of the Lord Jesus Christ 710 N. 7th St.) that baptized EP, but it was when EP was a young guy.

As a kid I can remember EP being in services sitting with my older brother and some other teens.

Well there it is... my claim to fame. :D
