Description

Renowned Vancouver architects Sharp & Thompson designed the original single-aisle church, built in 1913. George Sharp was a member of the congregation and lived across the street from the church site.

The church is Arts and Crafts style, similar to an English village church. It has shingled and board-and-batten walls. Inside are stained glass and brass lanterns.

Ecclesiastical architects Twizell & Twizell designed the 1947 additions to either end of the church. William Rhone designed upgrades in 1989 and 1994.

This site was featured on the 2024 Heritage Discovery Day and House Tour.
