I was born December 6, 1937.
In August/September 1959 I went to a Church of Jesus Christ Convention in Charleston, WV. There I met a man, Bob Winstead, who was pastoring the Church of Jesus Christ in Eskdale, Kanawha County WV somewhere outside of Charleston. I had previously met him in Niles, Michigan some years before at a convention of The Church of Jesus Christ, Pentecostal Faith. I took out license with The Church of Jesus Christ while I was there in Charleston and Bob Winstead was one who signed my application. Bishop Mark Lawson was still alive back then. I preached for Bob Winstead one night while I was there. After I got back home I had second thoughts and sent the license in to Bishop Lawson because I was attending a UPC church and doing some teaching and preaching there and did not want to get into any trouble with my pastor (although I was preaching around at non-UPC churches at the time, even a couple Church of Jesus Christ churches. Actually, my wife's grandfather who married us was a preacher with The Church of Jesus Christ.
Later I did take out license with The Church of Jesus Christ, Pentecostal Faith.Bishop G.R. Brock in Indianapolis was the Presiding Bishop. I let that license lapse when we started going to an ALJC church in the Cincinnati area. Later I was licensed with the ALJC.
Speaking of old...... the picture of me and my wife in the attached montage was taken in the fall of 1959 at The Church of Jesus Christ Pentecostal Faith in Indianapolis, Indiana when I went and preached for Bishop Brock.
Later,
