THE World Methodist Museum here is now exhibiting a display of prominent items related to Charles Wesley in the 300th anniversary of his birth.
The exhibit is put up with the assistance of Dr Lavere Webster, an expert in Wesleyan history and memorabilia. It is expected to attract many visitors to the museum, which is located at Lake Junaluska in North Carolina, the United States, the site of the headquarters of the World Methodist Council.
The Charles Wesley exhibit includes hymnals published in 1849, 1859 and 1881; an original unpublished poem by Charles Wesley in his own handwriting; a needlework sampler made in 1830 by a seven-year old girl featuring Wesley’s Chapel; a 2007 commemorative horse brass ring from Wesley Memorial Church, Epworth, England; commemorative Charles Wesley’s busts; and paintings of Charles Wesley, the great songwriter. – World Parish, international organ of the World Methodist Council.
