ABOUT
The Sons of Allen is the official men’s ministry of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, rooted in the legacy of Richard Allen and committed to strengthening men in faith, service, and leadership.
The New Jersey Conference Sons of Allen exists to bring men together across districts and local churches into one unified expression of brotherhood, discipleship, and service. We are not replacing local ministry efforts—we are strengthening connection, communication, and shared mission across the Conference.
We believe strong men shape strong churches, strong families, and strong communities. Our goal is to help men grow in Christ while living out their faith in practical ways at home, in the church, at work, and in public life.
MISSION
To develop, organize, and mobilize Christian men for spiritual growth, leadership, mentorship, evangelism, and service throughout the New Jersey Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church.
We seek to build men who are faithful to Christ, committed to the AME Church, responsible in their families, and active in their communities.
VISION
To form a unified, disciplined, and active brotherhood of men serving across every district and local church in the New Jersey Conference.

-
Spiritually grounded
-
Rooted in AME history and doctrine
-
Trained for leadership and service
-
Committed to mentoring others
-
Connected across districts
-
Visible in their communities
-
