Yes, I believe the correct initials are ACJCII.

It is a small, but growing, organization that is a loose fellowship of ministers.

If it is the org I remember. My best friends dad pastored for them for years and he had a very very strict church in the north Texas area and I saw one of the names on that list I recognized and his church is also very strict in standards. And a good church at that. Small but very good church when I visited there last.

Ok now I feel really dumb. One of my dearest friends and his wife pastor a church thru this org in Mo too.. LOL

Isn't that the org that Raymond Crownover Sr used to pastor in? I believe he was in Overland, MO.

There are several groups who call themselves COJC.
The COJC was organized by Bishop Mark Lawson in 1927.
They've gone through many splits and divisions since then and many use COJC in the name of their organization.

There is one headquartered in Cleveland, TN.
Actually they are called The Churches of Jesus Christ International
but their licenses, credentials and annual fellowship cards just say Church of Jesus Christ.
The current presiding bishop is Boyd Lawson who is the son of the late Bishop Mark Lawson.
Their web site is

Some times it takes a while for the site to load, so be patient.

Thanks Brother Ellis. That is what I'm looking for.

NOT the same group. These folks have been around a long time a small area group in the Midwest. They did not teach the name over the door nor baptize in the name of Jesus Christ as the only way. Many of them baptize in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ or Jesus Name.

Isn't there a UAJC out of Greenfield,Indiana ?

I noticed A Bishop Frank Weber as a new member here.
If this the same bishop I know of, He is a Bishop of a group called The Full Gospel Church Of Jesus Christ or something like that based in Alabama.

One thing I have noticed with the ACJCII is that they really have no stand against divorce in the ministry.

I suppose that comes with the territory when men are shooting for a loose fellowship that really has no authority over the ministers that are a part of it.
