Bengaluru's Richmond Town Methodist Church Marks 150th Anniversary
Richmond Town Methodist Church (RTMC) in Bengaluru celebrated its 150th anniversary in October with events including a special service, choir performance, heritage walk, and the launch of a magazine, 'Grace Growth'. Established in 1876 as a colonial bungalow-style structure, the church was rebuilt in 1992 due to structural issues. Historically, RTMC served a small community of retired soldiers and contributed to education and charity, notably influencing the founding of Baldwin's Boys' and Girls' Schools and urban planning in Fraser Town.
