LET US INTRODUCE YOU TO…
GREATER ALLEN CHAPEL A.M.E. CHURCH OF TODAY
Allen Chapel’s Mission
To serve God by preaching and teaching the Word, encouraging spiritual growth and ministering holistically to the family, community and nation in a sinful and dying World.
About US
The history of Allen Chapel A.M.E. Church is an eloquent testimony to the faith of the human spirit. Even though Allen Chapel has been around for nearly 100 years, it continues to evolve based on the needs of the community it serves. We strive to be true to God’s word while being relevant to the people we serve. Allen Chapel A.M.E. Church, as a physical church, has evolved from small group church meetings in homes to a small church structure in Scotlandville to the church we have today.
The message espoused at Allen Chapel is faithful to Jesus and the Bible but the methodology for delivering God’s word is modern, relevant and relatable. Through the use of real life applications, we are able to be both relevant and relatable as we find timely ways to communicate a timeless message. There is significant emphasis on making the gospel message understandable to everyone seeking to come. Finally, we strive to meet the needs of the poor and needy in our community.
