The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, founded in 1800, is a historically significant religious institution that emerged from the John Street Methodist Church in New York City. With a rich history rooted in the struggle against discrimination, the church played a pivotal role in the Abolitionist Civil Rights Movement and became known as the Freedom Church, counting influential figures such as Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, and Harriet Tubman among its members. Originally part of the Methodist Episcopal Church denomination, the AME Zion Church grew rapidly, establishing multiple congregations and advocating for the ordination of black ministers. In 1822, James Varick became the first bishop of the AME Zion Church, marking a significant milestone in the church's journey towards independence. Today, the AME Zion Church continues to thrive as a symbol of faith, empowerment, and social justice.Generated from the website
