Telok Ayer Chinese Methodist Church

The church's history can be traced to a rented shophouse in Boon Tat Street, where it was first established in 1889. Since its inception, the Telok Ayer Chinese Methodist Church has played a significant role in the birth of Methodism in Singapore through English and American missionaries who preached in Chinatown. The building that houses the church today was built in 1924 - 25 and it was gazetted as national monument in 1989.
