Andrew Bryan of Goose Creek, South Carolina, “was one of the first pastors of note among Black people in America, [and] founded his church with prayer.”8

In 1916, Elder Lucy Smith, “one of the most successful of the early Pentecostal leaders in the city of Chicago, . . . organized a one room prayer meeting in her house.”9

In 1924, Bishop Ida Robinson founded the Mt. Sinai Holy Church with this core value: “One of the strong features of Mt. Sinai Holy Church is prayer.”10

Bishop Mother Rosa Artimus Horne, a former seamstress, “rose to power among her followers in the city of New York.”11 In 1929, Bishop Horne’s church was incorporated in Brooklyn, New York.
