African Methidist Episcopal

1720 Scovel St
Nashville, TN 37208

The African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church, the first major religious denomination in the Western world to originate from sociological and theological beliefs regarding race, stands as a testament to the fight against slavery and the dehumanization of people of African descent. With a mission to minister to the spiritual, intellectual, physical, emotional, and environmental needs of all people, the AME Church seeks to spread Christ's liberating gospel through both word and deed.

Rooted in a glorious history, the AME Church evolved from the original Free African Society and remains committed to seeking out and serving the lost and needy at every level of its connection. Today, it boasts over 7,130 individual congregations and nearly 2.8 million members worldwide, maintaining a strong focus on community engagement and social justice.
