Who conducted the Anglican First Fleet Chaplaincy during the first Christian service?
Correct Answer:
Rev. Richard Johnson
Explanation:
The question is asking who served as the Anglican chaplain to the First Fleet and led the first Christian service in the new colony. Reverend Richard Johnson was appointed as the Church of England chaplain to the First Fleet and sailed with the ships in 1787–88. He conducted the first Anglican worship in the colony, soon after the fleet’s arrival, establishing the presence of Anglican ministry for settlers, marines, and convicts. The other names are Catholic priests and did not serve in this Anglican chaplaincy, so they aren’t who led that first service.
