We find Episcopal District Lay Organizations organized in every Episcopal District of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the Continental United States from the first Episcopal District down through and including the Thirteenth Episcopal District.
Our organized lay movement has, therefore, had three (3) significant stages of growth and development. First, the early formative years under the Laymen’s Missionary League organized in 1912 by Professor Charles H. Johnson, Wilberforce University; second, Connectional Lay College, organized in 1916 under the leadership of Dr. Carl V. Roman of Fisk University; and finally in 1946 in Connectional Laymen’s Organization organized by the delegates from the Lay College who were meeting in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1946. Today, the organized lay movement in the African Methodist Episcopal Church operates as a vital force for good because it is free, independent and unmotivated by any desire, motive or purpose other than the general welfare of African Methodism.

The Women's Missionary Society (WMS) is an organization rooted in African Methodism as far back as 1787. The first woman missionary of the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church was Sarah Allen, wife of Richard Allen - the founder and first Bishop of the church. According to the Know Your Church Manual, p. 20, "her first missionary project was to look after the physical condition of the preachers who her husband sent out into the field." Many of them returned in very poor physical condition, and Sarah Allen organized the women of the church to mend their clothes and provide hot nourishing meals when they came to make their reports.As time went on, more and more women with a missionary spirit came together in organized groups to attempt to meet the many needs evident around them. The two main organizations were the Parent Mite Missionary Society (est. 1874), and the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society (est. 1895). Already plans were being formulated to establish women's missionary groups in the Southern and Western states...and to unify existing efforts. In 1944, the desired consolidation was completed, providing us with the organizational structure and name we now know as the Women's Missionary Society of the African Methodist Episcopal Church.
We offer a variety of ministries and programs for all ages, including youth groups, Bible studies, and outreach programs. Our ministries are designed to help our members grow in their faith and serve others in our community.
