We are truly Experiencing God #AtTheWillow under the leadership of Pastor Henrico White. Sermons are available in their entirety in the worship archives on the ministry website – Weeping Willow AME Zion Church. Do you want to Experience The Word; Experience The Worship; Experience The Witness??? Here’s your invitation to join us at 2220 Milton Road, Charlotte, NC 28215 on Sunday mornings at 10:00 am as we ‘Shine God’s Light; Share God’s Love; Shape God’s People’! Sometimes the message meets me so personally that I create a ‘Word Trailer’ as a ‘Sermon Silhouette’ – a quick reminder for me of what God said. Links to these videos are now available in the right navigation menu for your viewing empowerment as well.
