Mill Creek A.M.E. Church

Our Story

Mill Creek A.M.E. Church has existed since 1886 and its original name was The Lykesland Community of Lower Richland.  The church was renamed in 1923 after it was relocated and rebuilt  between the old 76 Highway and the Atlantic Railroad.

Mill Creek has been at its current location since 1927, on land that Epworth Orphanage donated to the church. 

Several pastors have served at Mill Creek over the years and its longest-serving pastor,  the late Rev. Willie L. Tucker, led the congregation from 1958-1990.

Ministry continues under its current pastor, the Rev. Dion Richmond.
