Clyde Leroy Fletcher ( August 2 , 1894 - November 15 , 1969 ) was the founder and sole president of the True Church of Jesus Christ ( Cutlerite ) , a schismatic faction of the Church of Jesus Christ ( Cutlerite ) which existed from 1953 until his death in 1969 . Following his demise , his few remaining adherents elected to reunite with the main Cutlerite church in Independence , Missouri . Born and raised in the Cutlerite community in Clitherall , Minnesota , Fletcher elected not to relocate with the main body when that group moved the church headquarters to Independence in the 1920s . Following the death of President Emery Fletcher in 1953 , the Independence church , which then contained the majority of Cutlerite members , elected Erle Whiting as the new President of the Church . This was in keeping with a Cutlerite tradition that passed the presidency of the church to the former leader 's First Counselor , subject to the approval of the membership . Clyde Fletcher and the Cutlerite remnant in Minnesota did not approve of this step , and Fletcher was accordingly elected president of his congregation in Clitherall , which he subsequently claimed to be the sole legitimate continuation of the Cutlerite organization . Fletcher named his church the True Church of Jesus Christ ( Cutlerite ) , and began a lengthy court battle with the Independence organization over church properties in Minnesota . A Minnesota court finally ruled in favor of the Independence church in 1966 , giving them sole control over all Cutlerite properties and church records . Fletcher refused to accept the legitimacy of the Independence organization , however , and remained at the head of his church ( which was headquartered in the Cutlerite meetinghouse in Clitherall ) until his death in 1969 . To the end of his life , he continued to claim that his was the only true Cutlerite sect , and the only true church on earth . Fletcher did not change any of the distinctive beliefs of the Cutlerite church ; his organization remained exactly identical to the main body in Independence in every respect save leadership . Following Fletcher 's death , the few remaining members of his organization elected to accept an offer to return to the Independence church , which led to the folding of Fletcher 's church and the healing of the schism he had provoked .
