   Extractions: Religion and the British Methodist Episcopal Church T he church was the most important institution in most Black communities. Church leaders were often spokespersons to the larger community. The denominations were usually Baptist or Methodist. Baptist congregations encouraged a democratic participation by the election of their ministers. Black Methodists, coldly received in White congregations, turned to the African Methodist Episcopal church, which entered the colony from the United States in 1838 and by 1840 had organized an Upper Canada Conference. The Conference was instrumental in supplying the church with ministers and sending bishops occasionally to oversee its work. In 1856, feelings arose that reforms had to take place, and an independent British Methodist Episcopal Church was formed. A British Methodist Episcopal (BME) Church was started in Guelph in 1870, in a frame building on Market Street. Rev. Thomas Jefferson was pastor. The original congregation was comprised of former fugitive slaves from the United States. On September 18, 1880, numerous citizens gathered to witness the laying of the cornerstone of the new stone church on Essex Street. T he 1882-83 Guelph City Directory described the church as a "stone building, in course of completion but sufficiently advanced to enable public services to be held in it; when finished it will have a seating capacity of 300. The estimated cost of the building is $2,000". The BME church offered public services at 11 am and 6:30 pm, as well as a Sabbath School at 3 pm. Prayer meetings were held every Thursday and the Rev. Junius B. Roberts presided over the church's 40 members.

   Extractions: British Methodist Episcopal Church (Toronto, Ontario) Christ Church - St. James, BME, known as "the BME Church," one of the oldest Black congregations in Canada, suffered a tragic loss when its building at 460 Shaw Street was destroyed by arson on April 16,1998. The British Methodist Episcopal Church traces its origins back to the 1830s, when ministers from the U.S.-based African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church came to Canada to preach to recent Black settlers who had fled the US via the Underground Railroad. In 1856, the Canadian AME Assemblies decided to sever their ties with the US and the new British Methodist Episcopal (BME) Church was formed. The Toronto congregation itself dates back to 1845 and has occupied church buildings at several locations; in 1955 it moved to 460 Shaw Street upon amalgamation with the Afro Community Church. Here, the BME Church not only ministered to its congregation, but was a vital force in the greater Community. Its many social, educational and recreational programs included orientation for new immigrants, Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts, seniors get-togethers, and services for residents at the Castleview Wychwood Towers nursing home. At the time of the fire, the congregation numbered over 300, with some 50 children on the Sunday School roll. The BME Church had just renovated its kitchen facilities prior to launching a new Seniors Nutrition Program, but this project, and all the Church's activities, were suddenly interrupted by the devastating fire.

The Society organized schools for their children, as negros were excluded from public ones.

Curious, I asked some questions and learned that this church has an interesting past... In 1836 a chapel was erected at the intersections of Murray and Allendale Streets in Falls View, and was later moved (through the efforts of Olliver Parnell and Burr Plato) to Peer and Grey Streets in Niagara Falls. The British Methodist Episcopal Church was at one time a destination on the Underground Railroad.
