Greater Hood Memorial A.M.E. Zion Church "The Church of Unshakable Faith"

Greater Hood is the church in the Hood where hurting people come to get helped. Sunday School @ 3:00 P.M.

HOURS OF SERVICE
Sunday Morning Worship Service @11 A.M. Tuesday Morning Prayer 5 A.M. Wednesday Bible Study @ 7 P.M. Greater Hood Memorial African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church is the "Oldest Continuance" Black Church in Harlem. We are a congregation of believers who love the Lord, love one another and love to spread the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Greater Hood is a growing church

that is not just about doing church as usual, but about ministering in a way that is relevant to the needs and concerns of the community. We believe that you cannot claim to love God whom you do not see and not love your brothers and sisters whom you see everyday. One of the more celebrated ministries we have at Greater Hood is our famed Hip Hop Church. Hip Hop Church founded by Minster Kurtis Blow Walker, Rev. Stephen Pogue, a former pastor of Greater Hood and Bro. John Wright, has received world-wide acclaim for ministering to those who would not attend a regular Sunday Service. Every Thursday night @ 7:00P.M. we incorporate gospel rap, hip-hop beats, gospel music and the preached word in a contemporary worship service. Many have given their lives to the Lord through the Hip Hop Church experience. There is so much more to say, but instead of telling you, we would love to show you. Please give us a try as we invite you to be our special guests this and every Sunday @ 11:00 A.M.
