Church history

Paragraph that details some of the information about this church.
Wesley United Church in Trout Brook, started by Dame Mary Shaddick, who came from England in 1830, began as a Methodist Church. Mary and her fellow worshippers were holding Sunday morning prayers for five years before a Methodist minister (Samuel Rice) form Chatham visited the community and found “a people prepared for the Lord”.
In the 19th Century the first church built was of logs. The second church, a frame one, built adjacent to the cemetery, was dedicated in June of 1920.
In 1926 this Methodist Church voted to become a United Church. Since that time, it, along with the Whitney United Church has been part of the St. Stephen’s United Church charge.
