The African-American Catholic Congregation and its Imani Temples are an Independent Catholic church founded by Archbishop George Augustus Stallings, Jr., an Afrocentrist and former Roman Catholic priest, in Washington, D.C. Stallings left the Roman Catholic Church in 1989 and was excommunicated in 1990.[1] In 2014, the church decided to relocate to nearby Prince George's County, Maryland; their current headquarters are located in Hillcrest Heights, Maryland.[2][3]
