Richard Allen is important to me because if it were not for him there would not be an AME Church. He is important in 2001 because he is the one who founded this church. What do you think would have happened if Richard Allen had not lived? That’s right. If Richard Allen had not lived, there wouldn’t be a church. So we need to be thankful that Richard Allen was alive to find a church that now has 19 districts including Africa. What possessed Richard Allen to find all the AME Churches? How did he feel? Did he have confidence in himself?

 Richard Allen, born a slave, has changed all of our lives through the AME Churches that he founded throughout the years. Think about it for a second. What has Richard Allen done to change our lives?
