Book Description
Excerpt from Early Saint John Methodism and History of Centenary Methodist Church, Saint John, N. B: A Jubilee Souvenir Centuary Church having completed its fiftieth year, a committee was appointed by the Trustee and Quarterly Boards to prepare a programme, the carrying out of which would give due recognition to that event. The duty of preparing a paper, in which leading facts connected with the church's history should be noted, was assigned to me, coupled with the further duty of reading the same at some time during the celebration. It was soon found, however, that no matter how concisely the statements might be made, if the paper was to be at all complete, too much time would be demanded for its presentation. T was then asked to prepare an historical sketch, something in the nature of what is presented in the following pages, which, with an account of the Jubilee itself, should be published in book form as a Jubilee Souvenir. The duty having been accepted, was found to be much more arduous than anticipated. A paper, incomplete in itself, was prepared and read at one of the exercises during the Jubilee season, but further than that, in consequence of pressure of business, no attention could possibly be given to the subject for some months. After many days, I now present the result of my search, conscious of imperfection, and with no claim to literary merit, yet with a satisfaction that in a few instances I have rescued some items that soon might have been among the things forgotten. There are many incidents in the history of a church which, for the time being, demand little attention. Years afterwards they are brought to the surface and yield an interest which it was not thought attached to them. With the itinerant system, of necessity there are many changes in the pastorate; moreover, the congregation is constantly changing. As a rule, no record is kept beyond matters of routine.

Saint John, New Brunswick, was a small, stagnant mercantile town in 1800. Its character was set by its British garrison, a few prominent Loyalist officials, and a small merchant elite. But that character changed quickly and dramatically in the first half of the nineteenth century. T.W. Acheson traces the events that lead to the change and analyses their impact on the community.

Book Description
This study is an investigation of the arrival, planting, and expansion of the Church of England in Loyalist New Brunswick. The obstacles encountered in setting up missions in the frontier both before and after the arrival of Bishop Charles Inglis are documented. It is revealed that the origins, qualifications, zeal, and adaptability of the colony's missionaries were key factors in the Church's foundation and success. Legislated establishment, although British policy, proved half-hearted and of little benefit in colonial New Brunswick. While imperial attention to colonial religious policy was short-lived, the continued interest and aid of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel (SPG) was crucial. inability to fully understand and appreciate the New Brunswick reality, the SPG remained the only secure source of clerical income. Given the frontier economy, SPG funds were critical to the Church, but it was in the end the exertions of Bishop Inglis and his small band of former New England missionaries who effected, the establishment and long-term viability of the Church of England in Loyalist New Brunswick.
