Reference Number: PC/701 Title: Centenary-Queen Square Pastoral Charge fonds Dates: 1791-2014 Extent: 7.3 metres of textual records, 300+ photographs, 2 VHS tapes, 6 architectural plans, and 4 artifacts

Administrative History: A pastoral charge is a grouping of churches termed "preaching points" -- each with separate names and governing boards or sessions. These churches are served by one minister. The pastoral charge title usually reflects the breadth of the geographic area encompassing the charge.

Centenary-Queen Square Pastoral Charge consisted of Centenary-Queen Square United Church in Saint John, New Brunswick.

After the formation of The United Church of Canada in June 1925, Centenary Methodist Church, Carmarthen Methodist Church, Zion Methodist Church, and Queen Square Methodist Church became part of The United Church of Canada. Zion United Church closed in 1935. In 1939, Centenary and Queen Square United Churches amalgamated to become the Centenary-Queen Square United Church. They worshipped in the Centenary building. In 1957, Carmarthen Street United Church was amalgamated with Centenary-Queen Square in 1957. The church building was put up for sale in 1998 and the congregation moved to a store front chapel at 215 Wentworth Street. Centenary-Queen Square United Church was closed on October 31st, 2013.

Administrative History: Germain Street was the mother Church of Methodism in Saint John and the second place of worship built in the city. In 1792, a building on the west side of Germain Street was purchased and used as a meeting place for local Methodists. Prior to this, Methodists would gather in houses for worship. The first minister of the congregation was Abraham John Bishop. In 1807, construction was begun on a church on the northeast corner of Germain and Horsefield Streets. The church was completed and dedicated in 1808. It was here that George Taylor established the first Sunday School in Saint John. The church was enlarged in 1834. During the pastorate of Rev. Enoch Wood in 1836, the congregation became too large and a new church was built and opened in 1838. This church was named Centenary Methodist Church.

The original Germain Street building was used until June 20, 1877, where it was destroyed in the Great Fire. A new lot was purchased on Queen Square, and construction was completed in 1879 at a cost of $45,000. From then on, the church was known as the Queen Square Methodist Church.

Queen Square Methodist Church became part of The United Church of Canada in 1925.

Reference Number: PC/701/4 Title: Queen Square United Church Records Dates: 1925-1939 Extent: 28.2 cm of textual records

Administrative History: In 1925, upon the creation of the United Church of Canada, Queen Square Methodist Church became Queen Square United Church.

During the twenties and thirties, more and more families were moving outside the city and outside of the churches. This led to a steady decline in attendance rates for the churches of the area. Therefore, discussions were begun on combining Queen Square United Church and Centenary United Church together. In 1939, union with Centenary was decided upon, with Centenary to be the church of the uniting congregations. The two churches combined would now be known as Centenary-Queen Square United Church.

Administrative History: During the time of Rev. Enoch Wood in 1836, the congregation of Germain Street Chapel became too large for the church building. Mr. Wood purchased three lots of land and Mr. John. B Gaynor purchased a fourth on which Centenary Methodist Church was built. The church was opened in 1839 and featured a gallery and a large school-room inside. The church was named after the centennial of Methodism in 1839. In the fall of 1850, the entrance of the church was altered and the church’s debt was reduced greatly. In 1853, a church organ was transported to the church from England. In 1875, very extensive repairs were undertaken.

In 1877, the church was burned in the Great Fire. Following this event, the Exmouth Street Church was temporarily used for the services of the Centenary Church. The church was rebuilt in 1882, with a new school room and gallery in place. Rev. Sprague was sent to the USA and to Britain to receive supplementary funds for the rebuilding of the church. With the creation of The United Church of Canada in 1925, Centenary Methodist Church became Centenary United Church.

Reference Number: PC/701/7 Title: Carmarthen Methodist Church records Dates: 1868-1925 Extent: 10.5 cm of textual records and 2 photographs

Administrative History: Carmarthen Methodist Church was established as the result of a mission in the south end of Saint John under Rev. C. Stewart in 1868-1869. The first service was held in the open from the front door of a saloon and consequent services were held in a hall on Wentworth Street until the construction of the church building. Rev. William Woods was the first pastor.

The church building was destroyed in the fire of 1877. The basement of the new church was occupied in 1878 and officially opened on June 13, 1886.

Carmarthen Methodist Church was the first church in Saint John to have a free pew system.

In 1925, upon the creation of the United Church of Canada, Carmarthen Street Methodist Church became Carmarthen Street United Church.

Reference Number: PC/701/9 Title: Marsh Bridge Mission/Zion Methodist Church/Zion United Church records Dates: 1887-1935, 1946 Extent: 4.5 cm of textual records

Administrative History: In 1886-1887, Exmouth Street United Church decided to rent a room in the building in the northeast end of Marsh Bridge owned by Mrs. John Myles for the purposes of establishing a Sabbath School. The Sabbath School was further expanded in 1888. In 1890, Exmouth Street and Portland Street Churches held a meeting to organize a new mission that included the Marsh Bridge area along with Indiantown and Millidgeville. This new mission would be named the City Mission. In 1910, Centenary Sunday School took on the responsibility of running the Sunday School at Marsh Bridge and did this until about 1923.

The Zion church was founded in 1858 by John Owens. It moved into the possession of the Methodist church in 1893 and the City Mission was asked to hold a weekly Sunday School in the morning and a service in the afternoon. At this time, it was connected to the Exmouth Street circuit. In 1895, Zion Methodist Church became its own head of circuit while still remaining directly connected to the City Mission.

In 1925, upon the creation of the United Church of Canada, Zion Methodist Church became Zion United Church. Zion United Church was closed in 1935.

Reference Number: PC/701/10 Title: Wesleyan Burial Ground Records Dates: 1973-1996, 2003 Extent: 13 cm of textual records and 16 photographs

Administrative History: The Wesleyan Burial ground was established because the old city cemetery (The Loyalist Burial Ground) was filling up. The Wesleyan Burial ground was erected in the year 1838 on 2 acres of land and was sponsored by the Germain Street Chapel, Portland Chapel and Centenary Methodist Chapel. The burial grounds were used by people of all faiths and countries for the years to follow. In 1930, no further lots were sold and the last burial took place there in 1959. After a period of neglect, the trustee board set out on a restoration project in 1973 and over the next 10 years $50,000 was allocated for that purpose. The burial grounds are located on Thorne Avenue.

Reference Number: PC/701/11 Title: Varley Day School Records Dates: 1867-1922 Extent: 3.5 cm of textual records and 2 photographs

Administrative History: Mark Varley, who died in 1849, left one half of his estate, which stemmed from the sale of his half of the vessel “El Dorado”, to the Trustees of the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Saint John for the establishment of the Varley Day School. The building was to cost no more than 2,000 pounds, with the rest of the estate going into the maintenance of the building. This school was used to instruct both boys and girls under the guidance of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. The school was located directly behind the Centenary Methodist Church building. The Varley School remained in business until 1871 when the public school system was introduced in the Saint John area. In 1921, Mark Varley’s trust was divided up between the five Methodist churches in the Saint John community.
