Boston - A History & Celebration
The direct involvement of the civilian population in the horrors of war might be one of the factors contributing to the decline of religious belief and worship during the 20th century. When the Centenary Methodist Chapel was destroyed by fire on 24 June 1909, the congregation responded magnificently and the new chapel on the site was re-opened in 1911, and is still in use.
