Immanuel Baptist Church
Location
411, Mahar Bandoola Garden Street and Mahar Bandoola Road, Yangon
Built in 1885 by an American missionary, the church was destroyed during World War II but rebuilt in 1952.[1] Until 1965, the pastor of the church was sent by the American Baptist International Ministries, which at that time was called the American Baptist Foreign Mission Society.[2] One of the founders of that missionary organisation was Adoniram Judson, who lived in Burma from 1813 to his death in 1850.[3] The church is on the Yangon City Heritage List, a list of man-made landmarks designated by the governmental Yangon City Development Committee.[4]
In the early 1960s over 90 percent of the congregation were Burmese, including ethnically Anglo-Indian and Anglo-Burmese.[5]
