Church of God Holds
' Great Convocation

(prejudice. This means that
the case can never be brought
up again in the civil court.
Among those charged with
Bishop Mason were Bishop A
B McEwen ot Memphis, state
overseer of Tennessee, members
of the board of trustees and
jthe ministers in the council. lawsuit, Com-
now
included the folicw-
elders:
T. L Pleas, of Kansas C.ty,
Kans.; U. Griddine and R. E
of Kansas City; Joseph
Williams of Detroit; Dudley
Burrel Cleveland and
Mrs Beatrice Stammer of Ten¬
nessee.
“Today over three thousand
pastors stand behind our sen¬
ior bishop,” stated Elder Louis
H. Ford of Chicago, director of
the public relations depart¬
ment.
“This year’s convocation
was the greatest in the history
qf the church,” spoke Elder U.
E. Miller of Detroit, the gen¬
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
eral secretary
j Unfounded rumors and ugly
reports that the church was in
the process of splitting as the
| result of the su.t, filed irg
Chancery court of Shelby
ty, Tenn., during the height oi
jthe convocation, were
led when B.shop Mason was
given one of the greatest ova-
!tions in the long history of his
1 colorful career. While free
from any form of vindictiveness
| toward those who had accused
him, Bishop Mason stated that
he wanted the last vestige of
the source of the trouble re-
moved in order that
would never again be a recur¬
rence of this type of incident.
Bishop R. F. Williams of
Cleveland, O, presided over the
session Monday during which
time the Church of God in
Christ gave solid backing to its
leaders. iSgnificant was the
fact that *h» the „_______ council, cogni¬
zant of the crisis that had de¬
veloped as result of the law-
suit, included the entire gen-
eral assembly for consideration
of action leading to discipline
of th? dissenting ministers who
had been, responsible for the
•.rouble.
The writ of dismissal was
read before Ihe open body last
I Friday ai ternocn in the pres¬
ence of representatives of the
press.
Following the reading of the
writ of dismissal, there was
passed a resolution which re¬
stored the complainants to full
fellowship of the church.
Trouble began brewing three
years ago with formajiun of the
■ voiis coui l il which elected
Elder Pleas as its chairman
mis council was dissolved the
following year, however, but a
small band of m.nisters, with-
out authority, attempted to
carry on so-called reforms In
the name of the defunct coun¬
cil Matters continued to be-
come complicated until
year the sud was filed in court,
only With the resultant action
that the senior bishop was Ri v -
en broader power. ‘Long livn
our founder and senior bishop,”
shouted more than six thous¬
and communicants when Elder
Mason personally appeared be-
'l>re the convocation for an ac¬
counting of his stewardship
The crisis was over!
Organized 52 years ago,
Church of God in Christ has
developed into the third larg¬
est religious body in America
uiider the immediate and di¬
rect leadership of the Negro
race. Its influence and mem¬
bership has now extended to
'Africa and the Isles of the Sea.
Its physical properties, includ¬
ing the great Mason’s Temple
in Memphis, the Saints Indus¬
trial school at Lexington, Miss.,
and the Lillian Brooks Coffey
Rest home in Detroit, can be
evaluated in terms of millions

There are more than a mil¬
lion communicants of the
church who are directly or in¬
directly active with the various
departments, headed by Mother
Lillian Brooks Coffevi of Chica¬
go; Young People’s Willing
Workers group, the National
Council, under direction of
B.shop Williams; Horn? and
Fore.gn Mission board, the
Sunday School department, the
Bible band, and the Publishing
board. Two major publications
are issued on a monthly basis
by the church. They are the
