African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church

Hi Eddie891, St. James seems to be an African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, but the article's history section refers to the African Methodist Episcopal Church, please could you check? TSventon (talk) 18:51, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that was a mistake, thanks. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 19:34, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I didn't correct it mkyself due to lack of background knowledge. TSventon (talk) 19:41, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
