Mr. Tyndal sample and daughter, Mrs. Reagh sudsbury sang very accept- ably. Mr. Robert Jardlne read the history cf the Church Rev. Camp- bell delivered a forceful sermon on the ordinances of the Church.

Church History

"The work of our church goes back to the days cf Rev. John Keir when he was settled in Malpeque in 1810. He served here faithfully until 1519 when Bedeque and Rich- mond Bay were dLsjoined irom M81- peque and formed into a pastoral charge. owing to an increase of pop- ulation with Rev. Andrew Nickfl as minister. lie was a man of great energy and intense devotion He was not long permitted to continue his labours for he passed to the Great Beyond in 1820. He was suc- ceeded by the Rev. William Mac- Gregcr in 1821.

In 1825 the Bedeque pastoral charge was separated from Rich- mond Bay. A few months after the organization or this newly founded

congregation came one of the most

services

striking pioneers of our church in the person of Rev. 3.5. Patterson M.A. The history of this congrega- tion would, be incomplete without reference to this great man. on November 8th., 1825 (in years ago this week) a call was moderated in his favour which he accepted and his ordination and induction took place on March 22nd.. 1828. It was said that at that time there was not a wagon in the parish. or a mile of road on which to run on. The surrounding country was almost an unbroken forest. but he lived to see the country a fruitful field in- habited by B dense population. to witness the triumphs of steam communications by land and sea. His trials were many. his congreg- ation was at first weak, and dur- ing the greater part of his minis- try his stipend was only 300.00 per annum and he received only half of it in money.

He had to labour with hands on a farm and engage in teaching school to support his family. He had many severe trials in his home resulting from successive,strckes of bereave- ment. But amid all his trials he was strengthened and sustained by his Master and was greatly pros- pered in his work. when his con- gregation became able to support him. he devoted himself more ex- clusively to ministerial work and iheolcgical studies and did lhuch to promote the interests of educa- tion and to champion the cause of temperance. Until his Both year he continued to discharge the duties of the ministry with unabated zeal.

In 1880 he had a serious illness from which he recovered. but at Iast his strength gave way and ne passed from earth on Sept. 16th.. H182 after 58 years in the ministry. full of years, strong in faith and rcjolcing in hope. Among those who fork part in the funeral service was

his life-long friend.

Dr. William

Mcculioch who delivered an ap- proprinte and touching address.

It was during the ministry or Rev. 12.5. Patterson that a con- gregation was organized in Free- town with services in the schcol house. The next minister was the Rev. W. M. Scott from 1883 to 1887. a student of the renowned Dr Cook. The Rev. Wm. Tufts succeed- ed Mr. Scott in less. It was during Mr. Tufts' three year ministry that the present church was built and on Nov. 2nd., 1890, the church was opened and dedicated to the glory of God and for His service. Mr. Robert B. Auid gave the site of the church. Mr. Jesse Burns supplied the material for the frame. Two members gave 3100.00 and the rest of the families gave 850.00 each. The church cost about 3950.00 and would have cost much mcre had it not been for the free labour gener- ously expended.

The following is a list of min- isters as far as can be ascertained- Rev. 5. J. MacArthur. Rev. William lilcculloch Thompsrn. Rev. R. S. Whldden. Rev. W. H. Macintosh. Rev. A. Macxay, Rev. W. A. Mac- Quarrie and Rev. D. K. Ross.

In 1925 the church along with Becleque was voted into the United Church of Canada by a small mar- gin. The same year the congrega- tion was re-organized in Freetown Hall under the leadership ct the Presbytery of RE I. The congreg- ation then was joined wth Ken- sington and Malpeque and contin- ued to worship in the Hall for two years till Mav 3rd.. 1927 when the church was given back to the Pres- byterians by the "Court of Appeal in equity".

During the vears of reconstruc- tion the congregation was served by various supplies. The first of iliese was Rev. ME Genge who served about a year and a half and under whose pastorate the work was reorganized and consolidated. l”-lollowingv him was the Rev. Fred

Williamson who supplied for an ex-

tended time with ability.

The first inducted minister after the church was reoccupied was Rev. T. L. Williams. During his pastorate the manse at Kensington was bought.

Rhoad began his ministry as stated supply and was inducted as minis- ter on Sept. 7. line. He served until October. 1941 when a great work was accomplished. The present min- ister. Rev. J. A.

Let us give thanks to God for his guidance through the years in bringing us by KL: grace to this landmark in the history of our church. let us keep faith with those who have given us so rich as herit- age. let us rededicate ourselves anew to go forward with unabated zeal in our witness for Christ in this community and continue to con- tribute as God has prospered us to the needs of His church through- out our Dominion and unto the ut- ter-most parts of the world"
