Descripción del sitio
Founded in 1837 as on outgrowth of St. John A.M.E. in Bridgewater, the site was the gift of a prominent New Brighton Industrialist who was a Quaker and Abolitionist who had assisted escaping slaves on the Underground Railroad. The original building stood on Third Avenue and was used until 1878. It was chartered in 1880. The current church building was erected in 1894.
