OF GRACE CHURCH


PARISH REGISTER OF GRACE CHURCH,


JAMAICA, LONG ISLAND.


Grace Church, Jamaica was built in 1733 and 1734 and the first time divine service was performed in it was on Friday the 5th March 1734, when a sermon was preached from Genesis xxviii. 16, 17.


On this occasion the Governor of the province, his lady and family "honoured the meeting with their presence, and by their very generous benefactions great encouragement was given for the finishing of the Church."


(This information is collected from "The American Weekly Mercury," of March 28, 1734,-a newspaper published at Philadelphia by Andrew Bradford.
