St. Joseph AME Church

St. Joseph African Methodist Episcopal Church was established in 1869, as a congregation affiliated with the connectional African Methodist Episcopal Church (AMEC), the oldest predominately black, Protestant denomination in existence. The AMEC traces its origins back to the Free African Society of 1787, a faith-based, self-help organization that led to the establishment of the AMEC with Richard Allen becoming its first elected and consecrated bishop.
