The Francis Asbury Watercolours

painted by Eric Jennings

The 20 scenes Mr. Jennings painted are of stories that he took directly from Francis Asbury's journal, which he spent countless hours researching. After viewing the watercolours and the stories associated with them, we hope you will gain a better understanding of the ministry of the man who is known as the founder of American Methodism.

The originals of these paintings are held at Salisbury Methodist Church .
