Yalobusha Baptist Association Minutes 1838
No minutes of this meeting were found but valuable information was left in the notes of Elder James G. Hall.
In late 1837 William Minter was ordained to the ministry, and Elder James G. Hall and John Taylor moved into the territory.
Elder Hall notes that this Association meeting was harmonious and seemed to augue well for the cause.
Grenada church, organized in June of this year, stated in its letter that the church was friendly to missions and the
benevolent efforts of the day, and that if it were admitted into the Association it was to be understood that it was
admitted as a friend to missions. Upon these conditions it was admitted.
Statistics: 10 churches; 325 members.
