In 1854 Harriet successfully rescued six freedom seekers and brought them to St. Catharine's. Three of the six were her brothers who joined the AME Church. The following year it was decided that the AME Churches in Canada would change their name to establish their own distinct identity. At the Canadian General Conference in 1856, some of the AME Churches changed their name to the British Methodist Episcopal (BME) Church. The British Crown of England granted permission to use the word British in their title. The AME Church in St. Catharine's became known as the BME Church-Salem Chapel. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=african%20methodist%20episcopal%20church%20in%20canada&source=web&cd=7&cad=rja&ved=0CEoQFjAG&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stcatharines.ca%2Fen%2Fexperiencein%2FBritishMethodistEpiscopalChurchSalemChapel.asp&ei=y2D8UePGI43i9gSX4oDgCQ&usg=AFQjCNESVW8AuFzgEcdqtpNhmo5hpzIErg
Have you hugged your PME Director ? Who calls for your PME Yearbook Orders? Who asks for the deposit? Who get all the complaints? Who receives all the books in her home or church divides them, into area or local churches. then distributes them by any means available. She is like the post man , though rain , sleet and snow, she distributes them by any means necessary. Plus she gives an Institute of learning once or twice a year. Show some Love, she’s not getting paid!!!! She’s a Christian Sister Serving God. Your Conference PME Directors are dedicated to providing you one the most wonderful books in the AME Church.
