Bishop Wilbert S. McKinley of New York City has passed away. Pastor of The Elim International Fellowship. Funeral Times Posted Below.

The Elim International Fellowship was established by Bishop Wilbert S. McKinley on July 26, 1964, at 9 Chauncey Street, its first location. Bishop McKinley has survived some tremendous odds and difficulties to become Bishop and the Senior Pastor of this great church.

Bishop McKinley is one of the most outstanding clergymen of his day; his preaching and teaching are unique, scholarly, relevant to every day issues and highly anointed. He is called “Prince Cush” because God has sovereignly chosen him to carry the message of hope, deliverance, prosperity and nationhood to the Cushite race.

Bishop’s faith, vision and energy has moved this fellowship from a small storefront to a large, vibrant complex with a magnificent cathedral.

Today Is The First Sunday of November. WOW!

I cant believe it. Its the First Sunday of November 2008. So many things are about to take place this week. For most churches, communion will be celebrated all across the United States of America (out of tradition) while others are preparing to vote for the next president of the United States of America come November 4th, 2008. A major funeral is about to take place tomorrow at the Apostolic Church of God for the 3 who were slain in the Jennifer Hudson Family murders. Brian Nichols here in the Atlanta, GA area is for sure going to face certain death from a Jury of his peers as they more than likely will convict him of being completely sain when he killed the judge and other onlookers back in 2005. Gas prices have fallen finally to something that is affordable and the word “crisis” seemingly has been removed from our vocabulary for the time being. Yet God has still shown Himself to be faithful. Despite all the trials and tribulations you might be facing this first Sunday of November, lift up your heads all ye gates and be ye lifted up ye everlasting doors and the King of Glory shall come in. God has not failed and He never will. With that in mind, encourage yourself in this most holy Apostolic Faith knowing that the One God we serve, The Lord Jesus Christ has everything in control.
