The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church established a mission in Portland, Maine in 1891, after a number of the city’s African-American residents petitioned Bishop J. Robinson, who along with charter members, Moses Green, Ellen Odin, and others met in a hall on Temple Street. In the early years, the congregation moved to various halls on Preble, Free, Congress and Montfort Streets. But in 1907

Green, who said “There is no church society in this city that is at all interested in the spiritual uplift of our people, except it is the churches among ourselves.” Moses Green and the church trustees purchased a house lot at 95 Monument Street.

SUNDAY RECAP | HOLDING STEADY IN SHAKY TIMES — PART TWO

Green Memorial was Holy Ghost-filled! From the first note to the final amen, there was praise, worship, joy, and a tangible sense that God was in the house.

Today’s worship brought Isaiah 33:5 (NKJV) to life:

“The LORD is exalted, for He dwells on high; He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.”

He filled the house.
He filled the worship.
He filled His people.

And when God fills us, it should show—not just in how we worship, but in how we live.

What a Sunday. What a Word. What a mighty move of God.
