"This church was constructed for the Methodist Congregation, and was designed
by Winnipeg architect James Chisholm. The interior of this church remains almost
identical to its original design, and is very impressive for both its use and
the octagonal central skylight. With its front entrance porch and central dome,
it follows many of the architectural themes of the Roman Pantheon." ~
Saskatchewan Heritage website
The church was built 1906-1907. In 1925 the church became the
Zion United Church when the Presbyterian, Congregationalist, Methodist and the
General Council of Local Union Churches in Canada joined to form the United
Church of Canada. To find more extensive history of this church and also
interior pictures of the church see the church
