African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, black Methodist church in the United States, organized in 1821; it adopted its present name in 1848. It developed from a congregation formed by a group of blacks who in 1796 left the John Street Methodist Church in New York City because of discrimination. They built their first church (Zion) in 1800 and were served for many years by white ministers of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1821 a conference attended by representatives of six black churches and presided over by a white Methodist minister elected a black bishop, James Varick. After the American Civil War the church grew rapidly in the North and the South. Foreign-mission programs were established in South America, Africa, and the West Indies. The church is Methodist in doctrine and church government; a general conference is held every four years. It has about 1,200,000 members.

format this article to print AFRICAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH . The African Methodist Episcopal Church grew out of a protest by Richard Allen against racial discrimination in St. George's Methodist Episcopal Church, Philadelphia, in 1787. Rather than suffer indignities in that white-controlled church, Allen formed a separate black congregation. In 1816 he organized several black Methodist congregations into a new denomination called the African Methodist Episcopal Church. In the tense times leading to the Civil War, qv the AME Church was not permitted to operate in Texas, or in most other parts of the slaveholding South. The first African Methodist Episcopal Church missionary in Texas, M. M. Clark, arrived in Galveston in 1866, after the surrender of the Confederacy and the end of slavery. qv Like African Methodist missionaries elsewhere in the former slave states, Clark wanted to organize black Methodists. Although Texas had had no AME congregations previously, many black Methodists had worshipped in the Methodist churches of their masters. Clark intended to bring them into the AME Church and to recruit others to Methodism. The congregations that he and other missionaries organized were originally supervised by Bishop Jabez P. Campbell from New Orleans. A meeting to organize an annual conference in Texas took place in Galveston, probably in 1867. (Administrative and doctrinal matters for the church as a whole are attended to in general conferences held every four years. Annual conferences handle church affairs within states.) On October 22, 1868, the first Texas conference met in Galveston, presided over by Bishop James A. Shorter. Among those present were the early leaders of African Methodism in Texas, Houston Reedy (
