WELCOME

GREETINGS FROM OUR PASTOR, LESTER A. SHAW

All praise, honor and glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for the great things he has done in the lives of his people here at Payne Memorial Church.

Today we celebrate anew God's grace and mercy towards all of us in this exciting ministry.  God has truly blessed this congregation in a mighty and wondrous way across the years. 

With all that we've been through these past years, our membership has been steadfast in faith to our Almighty Father. 
 Payne Memorial is committed to the rebuilding of our community and the City of New Orleans

My family and I are very appreciative of the love shown
to us across these years during these turbulent times.
We ask God's blessings on the Payne Memorial Church Family, the Eighth Episcopal District and the African Methodist Episcopal Church.
