Way Back Wednesday

1934-1950 St. Johns Anglican Church Constructed in 1927 by the resident priest, it opened to the public in 1929. The uniquely arched doorway and prominent hill-side location overlooking ÑÇÖÞÌìÌà Lake makes the Church and its companion building, the Old Rectory, one of the most photographed buildings in town. Fun fact: Over 90 years ago the church’s-stained glass windows traveled across Canada by rail and amazingly arrived all in one piece.

Just in time for the Centennial year, this beauty is getting a facelift to be once again utilized by the community. Get your cameras ready, it’ll be a stunner. Each week Lakes District ÑÇÖÞÌìÌà in conjunction with the centennial committee will be publishing a retro photo. The ÑÇÖÞÌìÌà Lake Centennial celebration will take place Aug. 17 – 20.
