Our Name . . .

AFRICAN - means that people of African descent and heritage organized the  church. It does not mean that the church was founded in Africa or that it is for people of African descent only. It does mean that those  Americans who founded it were of African descent and we proudly  recognize this fact. We welcome all who worship Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

METHODIST - refers to the church's membership in the family of Methodist churches. Richard Allen, the founder and first  bishop, felt that the form and format of Methodism would best suit the  needs of the African community at that time.

EPISCOPAL -  refers to the form of government under which the church operates. The  Episcopal form of government means that the chief executive and  administrative officers of our denomination are our bishops. The General Conference, elected representatives of the entire denomination, gives  them their authority. Their responsibilities are to oversee the  spiritual and temporal affairs of the church.

Our Beginning . .  .
In 1787, Reverend Richard Allen, Absalom Jones and a band of followers withdrew from the St. George's Methodist Church in Philadelphia because  of the "unkind treatment" and discrimination with which these  worshippers of African descent faced. They felt they no longer could  worship in a congregation that would not affirm them fully as children of God with equal potential and worth.  Allen and the others began worshipping in a blacksmith shop. They founded the Free African Society, which was the beginning of the African Methodist Episcopal
Church  (AMEC).
