The West Virginia School of Preaching began in August, 1994. The first class started with XX students under the school’s director, Brother Emanuel Daugherty. Brother Daugherty and his good wife moved to Moundsville, WV , from dfjalsdjf;asdl, a;ldjflasj. At that time the school building had yet to be built and Brother Daugherty, along with the faculty and students met at the Hillview Terrace church building while the finalized plans were made and contruction begun. Brother Daugherty continued as the director until ??May?? of 2002. Although Brother Daugherty was no longer the director, he stayed to help the transition of the new director as well as taught several classes and continues to teach new preachers. We have been blessed to have Brother Daugherty with us still and hope to have many more years.
