Wouldn't it have been talked about at their General Board meetings?
I mean it's kinda a big deal....
I'm not questioning your info.....
I just think that something this big would be talked about with the General Board

I can't imagine the organization is growing, or even numerically stable.

I know Don Johnson and his grandson Mark. They joined the UPC because of there being more UPC churches in there area they could fellowship. Now Mark is a UPC Pastor in AL. Don also left becasue he wanted someone else to lead and not lean on him to do it.
As far as ALJC they have alot of growth over seas. Though the individual churches seem to be growing I am not sure how many new home mission churches they place per year. The church I was raised in is ALJC. I have many friends still in there just as you do.

I very seriously doubt this. The groups have swapped preachers forever. I do NOT see the two merging. I cannot see anything the ALJC would get out of the deal. If I am not mistaken they have been a group since 1953?

I have one of their manual's around here somewhere, and if I remember correctly it did say they formed in 1953 or maybe 1952.

March, 1952, three groups known as the Assemblies of
the Church of Jesus Christ, Jesus Only Apostolic Church of God, and
the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, formulated a merger adopting
the name Assemblies of the Lord Jesus Christ

Okay, cool your jets, people, and lay off of Thad.
He's right....several men met at the Urshan School of Theology (or whatever it's called) in a forum this past weekened and agreed that they will support each other. These were men from ALJC, UPC, IAF, and I'm not sure if others were there.
I've been told that if you'll just wait, there's a website being formed that will have links to the various oneness organizations. Once this website is up, I'll post the link on here.
I don't think all of these groups are planning to merge...I think this was just a way of burying the hatchet after years of not fellowshipping. As you all know, CAN'T NOBODY TEAR DOWN EACH OTHER LIKE HOLINESS PEOPLE! *said with the most southern drawl I could muster*
So leave Thaddy alone!!!!!

We have been in virtual isolation because of all our personal situations. Catch me up on this expected loss please, if you have time.
