Excerpt from A History of the Moravian Church in New York City Altho frequent references are made to the work of this church in various historical writings, no one has ever written a history of the Moravian Church in New York City. Believing that this mat ter was too long deferred, the Elders and Trustees of the First Church fraternally requested the present pastor to bring to light the valuable information locked up in the abundant manuscripts and records preserved in the archives of the congregation. Not without a feeling of unworthiness for so immrtant a task, the pastor began his labor of love, and now, after two years of careful research, this volume, entitled A History of the Moravian Church in New York City, is given to the public. The principal sources of information contained in the history. Are the diaries, records, and numerous papers found in the archives of the congregation. The Provincial Archives in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, were also laid under contribution. Additional information was found in various books by Moravian authors, 'in numerous histories of New York, and in other litera ture bearing on the subject. If this history shall add to the appreciation of the value of Moravian labors in New York City and elsewhere, and inspire a deeper love for the Moravian Church, the writer will feel amply rewarded for his labors.
