St. Paul's Methodist Church (Oyster Bay, New York)とは 意味・読み方・使い方

As was the case with many other congregations, the first group of Methodists in Oyster Bay did not have a church of their own. Instead, traveling Methodist ministers from Jamaica, Long Island, visited here as early as 1812 and used space at the Oyster Bay Academy for services. Finally, in 1858 they were able to build a small church on Orchard Street where Oyster Bay Manor now sits. In 1895 Joseph B. Wright, a blacksmith, bought the building from them and continued his business there for many years. St. Paul’s Methodist Church was ready to move into this church building, which they had been working on since 1891.
