The mission which later became
tn e Emmanuel Presbyterian
church, was started in 1865 and
YVES housed in a little shelter on
Wooster street between Fifth and
Sixth streets. The first house was
donated by John A, Taylor, father
Ct Col. Walker Taylor.
The work did not attain real
stability until 1884 When the Young
Ladies Home Missionary society
c. the First church took owe the
sponsorship of the Sunday school.
The work prospered. until in
1886 the lot on Wooster street was
exchanged for one at Front and
Queen streets, and a small mis-
sion house was built.
By 1890 this building was out
grown and was moved back and
a church erected. The name I'm
manuel was formally adopted for
The chapel when it was dedicated
Feb. /, 1891, and was the home
of the congregation until the pres
cnt structure was erected in 1922.
1t was during the pastorate o.
the Rev. B. E. Wallace in 1885
that the mission was formally or
gcnized into a church by q COM
mission fir tie Wilmington
Presbytery.
At this time there Wer 1913
charter members, 115 of whom
were transferred rom the First
Presbyterian church.
1t was also in 1895 that two
other organizations in connection
with this work came into being
end through the years have made
lasting contributions in Christian
influence to the whole community.
The first was a kindergarten
which was maintained for Is
years, largely under the leader
ship of Miss Florence Bonitz, who
has come to be known as the
"Mother of Emmanuel" due to her
"immeasureable" service rem
dered through the years.
The other was the Brigade Boys
club, which was organized from a
class of boys by Col. Walker Tay-
lor, who saw the need of a week
cay program for boys in the COM
munity.
