Abolitionist activities
Шаблон:Anti-Slavery Society Convention 1840 Galusha took a firm stance against slavery. In 1836 he, along with other men of New York, including Obadiah N. Bush of Rochester, was named to represent New York at the third anniversary of the American Anti-Slavery Society meeting. He served as the first president of the Baptist Anti-Slavery Society.[3] He promoted the Liberty Party and preached about the evils of slavery.[4] Following his withdrawal from the Baptist denomination, he hosted abolitionist meetings at his church in Lockport.[5]
Millerite connection
Galusha leaned toward a premillennial understanding of Bible prophecy. After personal deliberation, and having read William Miller's Lectures, Galusha joined the Millerite movement wholeheartedly under the influence of a fellow preacher, Nathaniel N. Whiting.[6]
Galusha served as president of the Albany Conference on April 29, 1845, following the Great Disappointment.[7]
