According to Footprints & Chalk Dust, the history book of the 1981 Cardale Reunion Committee, it was in 1915 that pioneers of Cardale Methodist Church agreed to build a permanent place for worship. They had previously been meeting in Cardale (founded in the late 1880s) hall but by November 1915 their beautiful brick structure was built and ready for use. When Methodist, Congregational and Presbyterian congregations agreed to amalgamate in June 1925, United Church of Canada was born.
