Message from the Pastor
Mt. Zion A.M.E. Church
The pastor, officers, and members of Mount Zion African Methodist Episcopal
Church, welcome you to our church.  We take this opportunity to welcome you and
invite you to come and worship with us.  Please feel free to attend any of the
services listed.  At Mt. Zion, we continue to thank God and make certain that His way
is being practiced in the life of our church so that we may truly grow spiritually in the
knowledge of God.  Our commitment is to win souls for Christ.  "Let him know, that
He which converted a sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death,
and hide a multitude of sins."  James 5:20
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. This form means that the chief
executive and administrative officers of our denomination
are our bishops. The General conference, elected
representative of the entire denomination, gives them their
authority. Their responsibilities are to oversee the spiritual
and temporal affairs of the church.

Who We Are
What we Believe...

We believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker
of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His
only Son our Lord, who was conceived by the
Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead; and
buried. The third day He arose from the dead.
He ascended into heaven and sitteth at the
right hand of God the Father Almighty; from
thence He shall come to judge the quick and
the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the
Church Universal, the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of
the body and the life everlasting.Amen
