Christian Methodist Episcopal Church

The Christian Methodist Episcopal Church (CME Church), established in 1870, originated in Jackson, Tennessee, by a group of 41 former enslaved individuals from the Methodist Episcopal Church South. With a rich history rooted in Wesleyan Methodism, the CME Church has grown to serve over 1.2 million members across the United States and has missions in Haiti, Jamaica, and fourteen African nations.

Governed by a College of Bishops and organized into eleven Episcopal Districts, the CME Church focuses on various ministries and departments, which reflect its commitment to education, social justice, and community service. The church continues to celebrate its legacy while fostering spiritual growth and outreach among its congregations and the wider community.
