A blog in memory of Dr. G. Arthur. Woolsey
This is a scan of a letter from President James Jeremiah that was in my Grandmother’s scrapbook about Rev. Woolsey accepting the call to be acting President of Baptist Bible Seminary in Johnson City, NY. He was pastoring Brown Street Baptist Church in Alton, Illinois at the time.
Announcement in the Syracuse Herald Journal that Baptist Bible Seminary purchased a Roman Catholic Seminary in Clark’s Summit, PA. This will move the school from Johnson City, NY to Pennsylvania. Dr. Woolsey was President of the seminary at this time.

Short Article in The Progress, Clearfield Phillipsburg, PA Jun 27, 1968. “Rochester, N. Y. – The worldwide ecumenical movement received a blow Wednesday from a Pennsylvania clergyman who said it was part of Satan’s plan to form a ‘super church’ to worship the devil. The Rev. G. Arthur Woolsey, president of the Baptist Bible Seminary in Clark’s Summit, PA, told 2,000 delegates to the Regular Baptists’ 37th annual convention the plan would fail, as the doom of the ‘super church’ was predicted in the Bible. The General Association of Regular Baptists claim 200,000 members throughout the United States.”
