We carry the torch of faith, extending the legacy through our devotion to God, our care for one another, and our nurturing of the generations to come. Our shared love for God, for our families, and for the Allen Memorial Church binds us to those who came before and propels us toward a future filled with hope and continued growth in Christ.
We are the living legacy of our rich heritage. We are the bridge, carrying forward their spirit of devotion and service to God.. Grounded in love for Christ, for our families, and for our church, we look forward to building upon the foundation for generations to come.
Let us come together, filled with love for our church, our families, and above all, for Jesus Christ, as we honor the past and build a vibrant future together.
