About St John Ame Church
St. John's A.M.E. Church in Norfolk, Virginia is a historic congregation founded in 1840, recognized as the Mother Church of African Methodism in Virginia and a significant site in the struggle for Black suffrage in Norfolk. Under the pastoral leadership of Rev. Christian J. Savage, who was appointed in 2021, the church remains committed to the core values of liberation, development, and self-definition that characterize the African Methodist Episcopal tradition. The church welcomes visitors to in-person worship on Sundays at 10:00 AM, with services also available through live-stream on YouTube and by telephone. Beyond Sunday worship, St. John's offers regular opportunities for spiritual growth through Tuesday evening prayer services and Wednesday Bible study, all accessible both in person and remotely. The church invites the community to join in its mission of serving the poor, proclaiming good news, and fostering spiritual development grounded in faith and justice.
