DESCRIPTION

Mason Temple, a flagship of the Church Of God In Christ, was a monumental achievement, becoming upon its completion in 1945, the largest gathering place for African Americans to assemble in Memphis. It was known as the largest church building owned and operated by a predominantly African Americans Christian denomination in the United States. Through vision, prayer, dedication, determination, and divine intervention, the World Headquarters of the Church Of God In Christ was completed. The three-story sanctuary was constructed of brick, stone, reinforced concrete, and steel.

Mason Temple materialized out of Bishop C. H. Mason’s dream of a contemporary national convocation center/headquarters complex and exemplifies his progressive vision for the future of the Church. It is also a memorial to the legacy of Mason’s life, ministry, and accomplishments as Chief Apostle and Senior Bishop of the Church Of God In Christ. The building was named after Mason to commemorate him as the founder of the Church Of God In Christ and was erected to honor pioneers. Mason Temple is also a testament to international peace and harmony and served as a rallying place for freedom during the Civil Rights Movement. Included are:

  • Handwritten letter from Bishop C. H. Mason
