Hymn Sheet

1800-1850 / Other / Paper / Publication / Sunday School / Wesley's Chapel
Printed on paper
1810
Hymn sheet for two services held at Wesley's Chapel on Sunday 17th June, 1810. The hymns were sung by the 'Children of the Methodists' Charity Schools'.
The hymn sheet acts as an advertisement for the charity schools, in that it explains their function and achievements; it also includes a call for further financial support. At a time when there was no state assistance, charity ventures such as these made a big difference to poorer people's lives, and they were an important part of Methodism's social activism.
