Methodists In Manila Secure Church Property In City Center
Major Elijah W. Halford, Indianapolis born, led a rapid campaign to secure Protestant church ownership in Manila. By obtaining an American law to override Spanish restrictions, the Methodist Missionary Society gained control of a key block on Calle San Lule near Camp Wallace. The transfer, celebrated by Bishop Warne, marked the first Protestant church on Protestant land in the Philippines and underscored American influence in local religious life.
