With one exception, all African Methodist Episcopal churches in Minneapolis and St. Paul will continue under the leadership of the same pastors for another conference year.

Bishop A. J. Allen made the assignments during the Fourth District Annual A.M.E. Conference meeting in Davenport, Iowa the week of August 27th.

Re-assigned to his charge as presiding elder of the district was the Rev. Nelson Pryor.
