Beginning the CHOG in Houston, Texas

A story about the writer's mother learning about the CHOG through a woman named Annie Hall in the year of 1909 was mentioned.

The writer's mother attended a campe meeting in Anderson, Indiana where she was converted and baptized.

The writer was a member of another church and had no intention of leaving it.

The writer's mother purchased a tent in order to begin Sunday school.

Evangelistic service was conducted around 1911.

A large house was rented by the writer's mother which was used to conduct services. After meeting in this house, services were held in an empty store building before a church building was purchased on Bishop St.

Seven members of the original group began to evangelize in the Central Park area of Houston, Texas. On October 8, 1923, a Sunday school formed with 25 members present.

The writer became the first pastor of the Central Park CHOG.
