★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Thoburn Memorial Methodist ChurchEstd. 1873
The year was 1875 - the first anniversary of Revd. Dr. J. M. Thoburn in Calcutta.
While the Pastor was meditating on the wonders of the bygone year, a messenger
brought to him a note containing 60 rupees sent by a poor widow. She was not a member
of the Church but she implored him to accept this sum as an offering towards the
erection of a new and large Church.
The 60 rupees was the embryo from which this huge structure of the Thoburn Memorial
Methodist Church emerged, two years later.
The Thoburn Memorial Methodist Church, with a seating capacity of over 1500,
is undoubtedly one of the largest Churches in Calcutta. It is also completely self - supporting.
A building of this size needs substantial funds to maintain it in a state of good repair.
Add to this amount the monthly expenditure on electricity and water and you find that
it adds up to a tidy sum.
The Thoburn Memorial Methodist Church has a pastor and a couple of supportive staff.
The monthly salaries and related benefits of this small work force is the rsponsibility solely
of the Church. Under the aegis of the Thoburn Memorial Methodist Church are several
schools of which only two i.e.Calcutta Girls School High School and Calcutta Boys School
are truly self - dependant.
The Thoburn Memorial Methodist Church also helps financially number of poor families
- Christian and Non - Christian. The Church also remits money to baby folds (orphanages)
and old peoples homes managed by the Methodist Church and other denominations.
The Methodist Youth Youth Fellowship (MYF) and the Women's Society for Christian Service
(WSCS) are also organs of the Methodist Church of India and are also involved in supporting
Evangelical works and Social service in different ways. Both these wings of the Thoburn
Memorial Methodist Church, received grants to a certain extent from the Church to
implement and execute their plans. Methodist Men are also actively involved with the
Evangelical & Social in different ways too.
