    It has been a refuge for me since 1965, when I first came to Luther, Oklahoma! It's closed now and has been for years. The Bell is gone and the building is in disrepair, but I will always love "Metropolitan" AME Church. I'm sure it won't be here much longer. Come see it before it gets torn down!
