The Central Methodist Episcopal Church

Today in Philippine History (Philatelic Edition):

MARCH 5, 1899

The Central Methodist Episcopal Church was the first Protestant church in the Philippines founded during the American occupation. 

It was later renamed Central United Methodist Church and is located at T.M. Kalaw, Ermita, Manila. 

The church was a result of Filipino-American ties after the surrender of Manila in 1898.
