Union United Methodist Church

Generations of Black Bostonians have walked beneath the Gothic arches and soaring spire of the historic Union United Methodist Church in the South End to pray, worship, sing, marry, mourn, be baptized and break bread in the name of Jesus Christ.

One of the two Black state representatives expelled from Tennessee’s legislature this week, Justin J. Pearson, attended church at Union Methodist when he lived in Boston — and he continues to Zoom in for services regularly.
