According to Map Quest the church in Tipton, IN is 144.82 miles and 2 hours, 24 minutes from my house. It doesn't look like I'll be trying to drive there and back on a Friday night.
L.R. Ooton was an old timer. I'm not sure when he was born or when he died. He was preaching in 1915, maybe earlier. I saw him in the nineteen seventies and he was an old man then. In 1941 he was part of a group that left the PAJC and established an organization called the AMA (Apostolic Ministerial Alliance). At one time it had about 1000 members according to the Fudge book (page 62). I used to preach at a church in Dayton, OH where Bro. William Coleman pastored. He was with the AMA and also with the ALJC. In the nineteen seventies when I saw Eld. L.R. Ooton there, the AMA had only a few churches. I'm not sure how large they are now. Eld. Epley said he thought they had some churches in Illinois.
