Church Services
Wesley Methodist Church
Tarpum Bay
Tarpum Methodist Church is believed to be the oldest church in the settlement. It was erected in 1809 by Rev. Turton.
The walls are 2 feet thick. The church bell was given by J. W. Culmer, a leader citizens of the settlement. Mr. Culmer took the bell from one of his pineapple schooners.
Methodist Work initially began in Tarpum Bay in 1806 by Rev. Turton. By 1812 three quarters of the inhabitants were member of the Tarpum Bay Security. This did not last long and it was not until a new wooden chapel was built in 1837 that encouraged signs in morals, and spiritual depths of Church attendance were seen.
St. Patrick’s Anglican (Episcopal) Church Dedicated in 1892 with its historic pipe organ, beautiful tabernacle (which is the most beautiful in the country), and gothic architecture, is one of the favorite tourist attractions.
Church Of God Of Prophecy The church was built in 1956.
