Paddington Methodist Church Roll of HonourPrint Page Print this page

The honour roll commemorates those connected with the church who served in World War One. It was completed and unveiled at a special service on the same day as the Paddington War Memorial. 

From the Methodist standpoint, whilst we have surrendered a valuable piece of land, we have the satisfaction, of doing something to lift Paddington above the sordid and commonplace and associate our church with the work of preserving the memory of the men. Sunday, the 19th, also marked the completion of the beautiful Honour Roll within the church, and there was a special service therewith.
