The mission center in Vigan the capital of Ilocos Sur on the island of Luzon was opened in 1904 headed by Kansan Berndt O. Peterson.1 Missionaries opened schools—with the aim of both educating and Americanizing their students—and made Vigan the base for evangelizing around the region. According to the UMC’s history of their activities in Asia many Filipinos saw the church’s activities as an extension of American imperialism leading to Nicolás Zamora’s foundation of the Iglesia Evangelica Metodista en las Islas Filipinas in 1909.<br /> <br /> 1 Wade Crawford Barclay History of Methodist Missions Vol. 4 The Board of Missions and Church Extension of the Methodist Church 1949. unknown
