This plaque is located in front of Mother Liberty CME Church. It reads:

MOTHER LIBERTY 
CME CHURCH
On December 15, 1870, in Jackson, the Colored
Methodist Episcopal Church was organized
by the General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South. The first official
CME Church, "Mother Liberty," which stood one
block west, was razed by fire in the late
1800's. In 1893 the church was relocated to
its present site. In 1954 the Colored Methodist
Episcopal Church became the Christian Methodist
Episcopal Church.
