Founded in 1838, Metropolitan was formed by two existing churches: Israel Bethel A.M.E., founded in 1838. The parent A.M.E.

Similarly, both Israel Bethel and Union Bethel began as a result of dissatisfaction among African Americans over racial segregation here in Washington at Ebenezer Methodist Episcopal Church.
