Religious Family: Latter-day Saints (Mormonism)Religious Tradition: Other
Description: The Church of Christ "with the Elijah Message," Established Anew in 1929 was formed in 1943 after a conflict within the Church of Christ (Fetting/Bronson). Otto Fetting was the leader of the Church of Christ (Fetting/Bronson) until his death in 1933, and during his life he claimed to receive messages from John the Baptist. After he passed, the church received no revelations until another church elder, W. A. Draves, claimed to also receive messages from John the Baptist. Although some of these early messages were accepted by the church, their validity was eventually questioned, and a lawsuit over church assets in 1943 prompted Draves and his followers to leave the church, forming this group.
