National Bishop Arthur Loring was called to head the flock of the entire Pentecost Church of Jesus Christ in 1972. He was installed as presiding Bishop by the late Emeritus Bishop Thomas Davis, who retired due to failing health. Bishop Loring served in the acting capacity as pastor of the Chandler church simultaneously while pasturing the headquarters church from 1979-1989.

Bishop Loring who seized the opportunity to spread the gospel across the nation to Miami, FL, also ventured to Ghana, West Africa in November 1997 and has been four times. In 2012, Bishop ventured to the soil of Haiti to spread the gospel.

International Bishop Loring retired from the State of Arizona since July 1989 after 32 years of service. His many labors and outreach locally, nationally and internationally to establish a people on the foundation of Jesus Christ is not in vain.

Behind every good man, of course, is a good woman. We appreciate our State Mother Harriet Loring s firm stand to advance the furtherance of the kingdom of God in true holiness and righteousness as well.
