Jasper Church of God in Christ Mennonite (Jasper, Missouri, USA)
Jasper Church of God in Christ Mennonite Church, now extinct, located about four miles east of Jasper, Missouri, was organized in 1883 with about 20 members when Elder John Holdeman and Preacher Frank Seidner moved to that place from New Pittsburg, Ohio. During its time of about 15 years, services were held in the homes and in the Mayflower school. The ethnic background of the members was Pennsylvania German. John Holdeman was the elder, and later Amos Seidner was ordained to the ministry. About 1898 John Holdeman moved to Moundridge, Kansas. Nearly all the members soon afterward moved to other organized congregations.
