The Tyler DistrictThe Tyler District was created as a result of the redistricting of the Tenth Episcopal District (State of Texas) by the Forty-Seventh General Conference of The African Methodist Episcopal Church held in Indianapolis, Indiana, June 30 - July 7, 2004. The State of Texas was redistricted by counties into four annual conferences: The Texas Conference, The Southwest Texas Conference, The North Texas Conference, and The Northwest Texas Conference. (Please see The Doctrine and Discipline of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, 2004 Edition for a list of counties within each conference.) After the redistricting by the General Conference, the new North Texas Conference was redistricted to form two presiding elder districts, The Tyler District and The Greater Dallas District which now comprise The North Texas Conference. [To be Continued] NOTE: - This page will include the complete history of the Tyler District. It will also include the Re-Districting that created the Tyler District. We will also create links to Archives of the old Northeast Texas Conference, The North and South Districts, etc. If the Archives do not exist, we will do the research and create them. We solicit input and help from all persons with information regarding the history of the conferences and churches that became the Tyler District. |
