Historic Sites of Manitoba: MacKenzie Presbyterian Church and Cemetery (RM of St. Clements)

Built in 1930 as the All People’s Mission, the name of this church in the Rural Municipality of St. Clements was changed formally in 1948 to MacKenzie Presbyterian Church, commemorating Rev. Ewan Mackenzie and his wife Mary (1861-1948, buried in the associated cemetery) who rendered long and faithful service to the community. Closed as of the early 1980s, the building was a municipally-designated historic site (2002). It was demolished in October 2012.
