[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 248634, member: 9240"] I hadn't checked this before posting originally, but have since done a little research into the denomination of this church, listed as "AME" in the name. I'd assumed A = American and that M was likely Methodist, but couldn't come up with anything. Turns out it's "African Methodist Episcopal", which seemed rather confusing, so I looked them up. Fascinating history of a denomination I'd never known existed before this little detour.
