The Twelve Tribes
THE 12 TRIBES LEADERSHIP & MEMBERSHIP LIST
To locate your tribe, review the "Membership List" under each tribe. If your last name falls between the two names listed than that is your assigned tribe. (Ex. Pastor Harold Jolley would be assigned to the tribe of Gad because his name falls between Sisters Annabell Jackson – Katherine Keel in that tribe's Membership List.
