Church’s Denomination
In order to fulfill this goal, members worship God, submit to the demands of the Gospel, share the story of God's gracious works in creating and redeeming the world, invite people to follow Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, and serve as agents of God's releasing and reconciling love, according to the church's website.

Prayer, Counseling
The church said at Fisher AME Zion Church, they think that church does not just take place in buildings with four walls.
