James's, Philadelphia. In 1820 he was ordained See also:priest and until 1826 was See also:rector of St James's Church, See also:Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Largely owing to his efforts, Lancaster was the second public school See also:district created in the See also:state. His See also:interest in church See also:music and hymnody prompted his pamphlet of 1821, A Plea for See also:Christian See also:Hymns; he See also:drew up for the use of his own See also:parish a collection of Church See also:Poetry (1823); and in 1823 he was appointed by the See also:General See also:Convention a member of the See also:committee on See also:psalms and hymns, whose collection, approved in 1826, contained several of Muhlenberg's own compositions, including " I would not live alway," " Shout the glad tidings," and " Saviour, who thy See also:flock See also:art feeding." From 1826 to 1845 he was rector of St See also:George's, See also:Flushing, See also:Long See also:Island, where in 1827 he became See also:head of the Flushing See also:Institute, probably the first Protestant Episcopal " church school " in the See also:United States. He founded a St See also:Paul's See also:College, to include the institute, but the panic of 1837 and the refusal of a See also:charter by the state legislature brought it to an end; and the See also:property was sold a few years after Muhlenberg See also:left Flushing. The methods of this institute were however copied widely; church See also:schools sprang up everywhere; and St Paul's School, See also:Concord, New See also:Hampshire, and the Groton School in See also:Massachusetts were established in accordance with his ideas. In 1845 he removed to New See also:York See also:City, where in 1.846 he became rector of the Church of the See also:Holy Communion, a " See also:free " church built by his See also:sister, Mrs See also:Mary A.

The See also:work of the sisterhood led to Muhlenberg's See also:establishment of St See also:Luke's See also:Hospital (opened in 1858), for which his See also:congregation made offerings each St Luke's See also:Day after 1846. in 1866 he founded on Long Island the Church See also:Industrial Community of St Johnland.
