Supporters celebrate historic listing of Scott A.M.E. Zion Church
Supporters of the Scott African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) Zion Church in Wilmington came together in May 2024 to celebrate the historic structure’s listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
“Every time you think of your history, get excited about your future,” Bishop W. Darin Moore said during the celebration.
For over a century, the church has anchored itself as a focal point within the local community. To learn more about its history and the recent decision to list it in the register, read more about the listing here.
