Church Organized.
The Metropolitan African M. E
Church was an outgrowth of the dis
satisfaction which occurred in Eb
enezer Methodist Church (white), on
Fourth street near Virginia avenue
southeast, about 1820. The separa
tion of the colored members from
this church first led to the organi
zation of Israel African M. E. Church
In 1821 by Rev. David Smith, a mem
ber of the Baltimore Conference of
the African Methodist Episcopal
Church. Metropolitan Church was
an outgrovdh of these two organiza
tions. It was organized as a sepa
rate congreeation In 1838. It was
then known as Union Bethel Afri
can M, E Church. Rev. James A.
Hardy was the first pastor. By order
of the General Conference in 1872.,
Union Bethel became Metropolitan
African M. E. Church. When Rev.
John Stevenson became pastor In
1880 the first steps were taken toward
the erection of the present edifice, j
The basement was opened for W’or- ;
ship on November 8, 1885, and the >
dedication ceremonies were conduct- |
ed on May 30. 1886. Dr. T. G. Stew
art was the first pastor who served
In the new building. Dr. Stewart
has been succeeded as pastor by the ;
following ministers; Rev. John G.
Mitchell. Rev. John T. Jenifer, Dr.
John Albert Johnson, later bishop;
Dr. D. J. Hill, Dr. O. J. W. Scott,
later chaplain in the United States
Army; Dr. John W. Welch. Dr. I N.
Ross, later bishop; Dr. C. M. Tanner, I
Dr. C. E. Stewart and Rev. William
