Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship
The Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship, International is a fellowship of churches and individuals representing various denominations or organizations (originally from an African-American Baptist background) that accepts the operation of spiritual gifts (the charismata) in the church today, in reaction to the teachings of many Baptist bodies. The polity they operate with is episcopal. It was founded by Bishop Paul S. Morton, Sr. in 1994. Bishop Joseph W. Walker, III is the current Presiding Bishop. The FGBCF has an Executive Council, a Bishops Council, and several Auxiliary Bishops. The FGBCF has an annual 6 in 1 Conference that convenes in various locations (Atlanta, Georgia; New Orleans, Louisiana) typically in July.
