Services were orginally held in the Phillip Eckardt house on the east side of Kennedy Road up the hill just north of 16th Ave. This house still stands at its original location as part of a private residence.  Phillip Eckardt donated the land in front of the house for a cemetery and a church.  The first church was a log church. 

      In 1820 a new church was built under the leadership of Rev. John Peterson on the site of the present day cemetery.  A new brick church was built on the site of the original church in 1861. 

      The community of Unionville had begun to grow around the railroad two miles to the south, so in 1910 the church was taken down moved into town and rebuilt in order to be closer to the community. The windows at the front of the present church sanctuary are from the 1861 church on the hill. 

      The congregation began a major renovation of the building in 1990 that added about 1/3 more worship space, created office & administration facilities and renovated the basement parish hall, kitchen and washrooms.  All of the woodwork, including the new archway entrance and office furniture, was created by a local craftman who is member of the congregation.
