Church celebrates 100th birthday

The congregation of the Pt Alexander Presbyterian Church celebrates the 100th birthday of their church building on Sunday September 27 at 9 am. They will be singing some of the old hymns and everyone is warmly invited to join them.

The building is the oldest church building sill regularly used in the Rolph, Buchanan, Wylie and McKay townships. However, the history of the congregation goes back even further. A group of Scottish and Irish Presbyterians met for a while in the one-room SS No 3 Rolph school house, which no longer exists. As membership increased they decided to build a church. Construction was finished in 1887 on land donated by John McKinley and Isaac Moore. The building had cost $500 and had taken a year to complete. Initially, a wood stove provided heat but later the building was ducted for an oil furnace, electricity replaced oil lamps, and the pump organ was replaced with an electric organ.

The church was a mission church and relied on travelling minsters to conduct services. The first minister was Mr Logie. He would travel by train and was met at the station by a member with a horse and buggy. The minister would stay in "the minister's room" at the home of Mrs Alfred Allen. From Pt Alexander he would also travel to Rapides des Joachims and Deux Rivieres to conduct services for those Presbyterian congregations.

In 1925 the United Church of Canada was formed from the union of Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian churches. The Chalk River Presbyterian Church voted to join the United Church, and the Pt Alexander Presbyterian Church building became the property of the United Church but its congregation remained Presbyterian.

Between 1925 and 1956 the building was used at various times for united, Salvation Army and Evangelical services. The Presbyterian congregation would join them in worship. Although there were no Presbyterian ministers visiting during those years, the members of the congregation still had Sunday School either by correspondence or in a member's home, often staying for lunch.

In 1956 the Presbyterian repurchased the church for $1 and began repairing the building. Sometime during the 1950's the steeple had blown off the roof and was never replaced. The church reopened January 6, 1957. There have been nine ministers serving the congregation including Mr Purvis
