Denomination: United Church of Canada
The history of Calvin Church in Lawrencetown can be traced back to Methodist and Presbyterian roots in the early 1800’s. The original Calvin Church was built on top of MacDonald’s Hill overlooking the beach in 1853. Fire destroyed that building in 1965 and the present church building was constructed later that year and underwent a major expansion in 1988.

Our Mission Statement
Being a diverse community within the United Church of Canada, we study and explore the relevance of scripture in our lives as Christians; and we endeavour to be an inviting and nurturing place where all feel welcome.
We strive to live out a life of stewardship that provides, cares for and sustains those in our communities and the wider world.
