Grace AME Church History
Our Founder: Richard Allen 1760-1831
Richard Allen was born into slavery to Benjamin Chew of Philadelphia on February 14, 1760. His mother, father, and four children were sold to Delaware State near Cover. He lived there until he was twenty. Deeply religious from an early age, Allen was converted at 17. He began preaching in 1780 and was ordained in 1799.
Richard Allen felt that he had a special duty to spread the gospel among Africans and people of African descent, as well as those of all ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds. These were the people who, because of segregation and discrimination in church and state, were being dehumanized, ostracized, exploited, robbed, bypassed, and otherwise mistreated. They needed to be organized to have a Christian guiding principle of action. With these lofty objectives and admirable purposes in mind, he went on to use the deplorable social situation that necessitated his movement as a channel of blessing, much like Joseph did in the Bible, to incite in the Africans a fierce determination to be first-class Christians and Americans.
Between 1815 and 1830, Richard Allen was often recognized as a leader of free Black’s in the north. In 1816, Richard Allen was consecrated as the first bishop of this new denomination. In 1817, his Bethel A.M.E. Church hosted the first general mass meeting by Blacks to protest the deportation policies made by the American Colonization Society. After this was over, he continued his career of preaching and organizing. He died in 1831.
From 1797 until his death on March 26, 1831, Allen operated a station on the Underground Railway for escaping slaves. This work was continued by Bethel Church until Emancipation. Bishop Allen was married to Sarah Bass Allen. He was the father of six children: Richard Jr., James, John, Peter, Sarah, and Ann.
