Black Methodist Denominations Announce Plans To Come Together To Help Black Males;

Historic Meeting Is a First


Washington, D.C., Feb. 19, 2010 The heads of the nations three largest Black Methodist Church denominations, with a combined membership of more than 5 million people, came together today and announced at a press conference at the National Press Club that they were forming a historic coalition to address the plight of Black men in this country. They also announced plans to hold a major strategy summit and initiative introduction in Columbia, S.C., March 1-3, 2010.




Titled the Great Gathering, that summit will include the leaders of the Black Methodist Churches --African Methodist Episcopal (AME), African Methodist Episcopal Zion (AMEZ) and Christian Methodist Episcopal (CME). The goal at the Great Gathering is to seek to alter the troubling history of African American males by identifying, developing and implementing unified solutions for the key issues that are devastating the African American family and community.


This is the first time in the 140+ years all three Black Methodist denominations have been in existence that these groups have come together to collaborate on a major initiative designed to address a crisis in their communities. AME was founded in 1787, AMEZ was founded in 1796, and CME was founded in 1870.
