Philip Embury was born in 1728 at Ballingrane, the son of parents who had fled the Palatinate around 1709 when Louis XIV invaded Germany. At the instance of Queen Anne of England these German refugees settled in County Limerick, Ireland. It was here that John Wesley preached such a stirring messages that many of these people became members of the Methodist Chapels. In Philip's diary he said "On Christmas Day, being Monday, ye 25th of December, in the year 1752, the Lord shone into my soul by a glimpse of his redeeming love, being an earnest of my redemption in Christ Jesus to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen "According to belief it was not long after this conversion that Philip Embury was licensed to preach and aided in the establishment of the Methodist Chapel at Ballingrane.
When the Conference in Limerick was held in 1758 he was recommended for the intinerancy, but before he could be assigned to active service he was married to Margaret Switzer in the Rathkeal Church, November 27, 1759. In the historic John Street Methodist Church visitors can still see and hear, preserved alive an old timepiece inscribed,"Be ye also ready, for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh." The placing of this old clock in the first chapel of Methodism closed an epoch in Christian history seldom surpassed in the annuals of time. At this time several churches had been established in New York City, among them being several Dutch organizations to believe that these were Negro servants who had been attending the Methodist meetings.
Methodist historians, time after time, have stated that goodly portions, often times fully half of the Methodist converts were Negroes.
