We celebrated our 170th Anniversary!
This is your sub-headline

In celebrating 170 years of our church, we respectfully remember the ancestors, clergy and congregations of our past who believed in God and passed on their faith by word and example.  Here is a link to the picture show we displayed on that day.

History Snippet

"The earliest services in Vankleek Hill were conducted by the Rector of Hawkesbury, as at first Vankleek Hill formed part of the Parish of Hawkesbury.... St. John's Church was opened for divine service on the 13th day of August 1854, though in an unfinished condition.... When St. John's Church was begun there were ninety-three communicants in the whole Parish of Hawkesbury, which then included L'Orignal, East Hawkesbury, Alfred, Plantaganet, Caledonia Flats and Vankleek Hill." (St. John's Anglican Church 1854-1984, p. 6)
