AME Itinerant Deacon Appointed to Arizona State Legislature

 

On June 5, 2023, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors appointed the Rev. Quantá Crews to the Arizona State Legislature as the State Representative for Legislative District 26. She is one of two African Americans and the only Black Democrat in the Arizona State House.

The Reverend Quantá Crews was raised in Amity Baptist Church Inkster, Michigan, and baptized at the tender age of six. By high school, she had drawn away from her first love. She knows firsthand of God’s grace and mercy, God’s ability to heal, and the importance of growing past one’s circumstances. God sent the Rev. Crews to Grand Canyon University, a private Christian University in Phoenix. After hearing God’s word and experiencing God’s love through his people, the Rev. Crews rededicated her life to Christ via the S.A.L.T. Young Adult Ministry in 2005. She found her way to the Historic Tanner Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church in 2007 and served faithfully both with her church family and community ever since.

Ordained as an Itinerant Deacon in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, she currently serves the Young Adult and No Limits Special Needs Ministries at Tanner Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church. The Young Adult Ministry is a social action and mentoring ministry that seeks to enrich and empower young adults through the intimate study of God’s word. No Limits takes the active role of ensuring that those with special needs and their families are provided adequate support and accommodation in all aspects of their spiritual lives. No Limits also trains the church family in special needs awareness and gives leaders and volunteers the tools necessary to successfully support all with special needs in the church. She previously served as Chaplain of the Arizona State University Gospel Choir, giving back to college ministry, the ministry that saved her life.

The Reverend Crews is an experienced real and property appraiser who has spent most of her years in the government administration industry. She is a loving mother of three growing boys, a theological scholar, an aspiring lyricist, and most importantly, a child of the Most High. She is dedicated to the education, empowerment, freedom, and advancement of all by sharing the Good News of our liberating Savior, Jesus Christ.
