This is an Anglican Church in Colaba, built by the British to commemorate the dead of the disastrous defeat in the First Afghan War of 1838. This church is believed to have hosted members of the White Brotherhood who believe that Lord Jesus visits them from the Cave of Light in the Dauladhar Mountains even today. The imposing edifice was constructed using locally available buff-coloured basalt and limestone. Inside it is known for its wide Gothic arches and beautiful stained glass windows. The chapel has a nave and aisle with a chancel 15 m in length and 7 m in width. Butterfield's tiles used for the geometric floor pattern were imported from England. The east and west windows were designed by William Wailes, a nineteenth-century stained glass expert. The stained glass used is superior to that in the Rajabai Tower and CSMT. Eight large bells in the bell tower came from the Taylor bell foundry of England in 1904, and are acknowledged to be the best in Western India. The tower and spire are 60 m high.
The Church of St John the Evangelist, better known as the Afghan Church, is an Anglican church belonging to the Mumbai diocese of the Church of North India. Located in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, it was built by the British between 1847 and 1858 to commemorate the dead of the First Afghan War and the disastrous 1842 retreat from Kabul. Memorials at the rear of the nave also record casualties from the Second Anglo-Afghan War. The foundation stone was laid in 1847; it was consecrated in 1858, and work on the steeple finished in 1865.
