History of the church

THE history of the Tamil Methodist Church goes back to 1896 when a group of youths met in their homes to conduct prayer meetings and bible study.

During these meetings, the topic to set up a community church was broached a few times and this finally led to the establishment of the Kuala Lumpur Episcopal Tamil Church (renamed the Tamil Methodist Church Kuala Lumpur).
