  • The Methodist Church STORY 'The Methodist Church' by Paul P
    Robert Samut Hall in Floriana formerly known as the Methodist Church STORY 'The Methodist Church' by Paul P. Agius Dip Educ (Ad), BA. The year 1815 brings to mind the Battle of Waterloo, and in that same year also, British military personnel stationed on our island sent an im­ portant appeal to the Methodist Mis­ sionary Committee in London, to so- licit the presence of a minister to conduct the weekly serv­ ices here. The request was partially complied with in 1823. Eric H. Fawthrop wrote in his book 'The Floriana Story'_ that methodism in Malta had by that time flourished so much, that among its members 118 were soldiers. Between them they hired three rooms, one in Senglea, in Valletta and in Floriana to practice their religious obligations. In August 1824 the Reverend John Keeling accompanied by his wife, arrived at the Malta Missionary Station and stayed at No: 55 Britannia Street corner with Old Bakery Street, Valletta. The building was the first and only Prot­ estant Church in Malta until 1839, when St Paul's Angli­ can Cathedral was opened in Valletta. Stone throwing incidents between the local groups and The Methodist Church in Floriana now Methodist Missionaries occurred quite regularly. One such Robert Sammut Hall notable episode cited in the above mentioned book involv- ing the Rev Dr William Harris Rule and Rev S.S. Wilson 1 took place on 5 h August 1826. The latter had just finished the funeral service ofthe first Maltese to become protestant and a very large crowd estimated to be fifteen thousand, shouted, hooted, whistled, screamed, hurled stones and clutched at the coffin during the half-mile trip from Valletta to the grave in Floriana.
