Bahamas Philately: Methodist Church (Bimini)

The first Methodist ministers came to Bimini in 1858. A leader from Spanish Wells, Clem Pinder and a local preacher from Nassau made the trip. By 1862 the congregation numbered 20 and the first Wesley Methodist church building was completed.

In 1926, a hurricane destroyed the original church building but by 1928 a new building was constructed. The building continues to stand today.
