Re: Bishop H.E. Honea
I'm not sure of his age. Bs. Lawson told me that other day that he is approaching 80 so I suspect Bro. Honea is about the same age. Not to sure of his history, but I do think he did minister in the north in the early days. He founded the 1stCOJC in 1966. I have been to his home and church many times. Heis always been a good brother to me, though I never could stand his "clerical collars". He tried to get me to a pastor a church in Decherd Tennessee years gao. Though I had been preaching for two years, I was too young, 17. He said that was okay, that he would have oversight of the church and would help...but I felt I was just too young.
I REMEMBER ONE TIME HE "STOLE" A RHUBARB PIE FROM HIS WIFE AND WE TOOK IT TO THE CHURCH FELLOWSHIP HALL AND HE FORCED ME TO SPLIT IT WITH HIM. We ate the whole thing, though I dispised rhubarb pie! Awfullest tasting thing I ever put it in my mouth. So, no...hes not a skinny kid anymore. He's filled out pretty good. I went by yesterday to see him but he was resting... will go back to see him before long.
