Philadelphia, PA 19106
What do people do when they aren't welcome at other churches? If you are Reverend Richard Allen, your deep faith lays the groundwork for the nation’s oldest African Methodist Episcopal church.
You can walk on hallowed ground when you visit Mother Bethel AME Church. Founded in 1797, the church rests upon the oldest parcel of land continuously owned by African Americans. While visiting the church don't miss its collection of huge stained glass windows with both religious and Masonic images.
