Appendix II
List of Leaders: Bishops, Ministers, Deacons
Compiler's Note: A listing of ordained bishops, ministers, and deacons of the Ohio and Eastern Mennonite Conference, including those leaders ordained in the Ohio Mennonite Conference and the Eastern Amish Mennonite Conference, the two parent conferences of the Ohio and Eastern Mennonite Conference. Also included are the ordained leaders of those congregations in conference with Amish Mennonite and Swiss Mennonite background. The list is intended to be comprehensive in that it covers the period of the Amish Mennonite and Swiss Mennonite congregations predating their conference membership, and going back to the date of their congregational organization. The list includes ministers ordained elsewhere, who moved in and served conference churches. The list is current to Jan. 1, 1968.-Wilmer D. Swope.
