Battle River Hospital
Corporate body · September, 1937-1954

The Battle River Hospital was located in Manning, Alberta. When the Peace River Country of northern Alberta was opened for settlement, the Woman's Missionary Society (WMS) of the Presbyterian Church in Canada established a small hospital on the Battle River mid-way between the villages of Notikewin and North Star. It was located 65 miles from the railway in an area inhabited by about 5,000 people most of whom had moved north from dried-out sections of Alberta and Saskatchewan. The hospital was opened in September, 1937 by the WMS of The United Church of Canada with accommodation for 8 patients, and with a nurse’s residence on the second floor. When it opened Dr. Doidge was the doctor, Miss, M.E. McMurray the matron, and Miss Frances M. Clarkson the staff nurse. Changes in staff were frequent, because of the loneliness of the situation of the hospital. Before long additions were made, the hospital was enlarged to accommodate 17 patients; a new nurses residence was opened in 1946 and a doctor’s residence in 1948. At first the address of the hospital was Grmishaw, the railway station 65 miles away, but as the railway was extended north and roads opened a town grew up in the hospital area. This town was named Manning after the premier of Alberta. With the growth of the town the area could no longer be considered a pioneer community. The municipality became interested in operating its own hospital, so after considerable negotiation the WMS sold the Battle River hospital to the town in 1954.

Around 1904 a new school building was constructed, and there are reports of staffing, funding and renovations up until 1963. Government records indicate the school closed in 1976.

Bella Coola Day School was located in Bella Coola, British Columbia. It was operated by The Methodist Church of Canada, and after 1925, The United Church of Canada . Department of Indian Affairs records show that as of 1902, Bella Coola had a church and a day school under The Methodist Church of Canada. In 1911, a new schoolhouse was built on the north side of the river where most of band resided. Although there is little information on the school after this period, it appears to have been regularly open for the next 30 years. United Church records indicate a second classroom was added in the 1940s. By September, 1962 there was a new two-storey school building at Bella Coola though it is unclear whether this was related to the day school as Government records suggest the school closed in 1957. Further research is needed to confirm when the school closed, and its general history.

Berens River Day School
Corporate body · [1876]-,1901-September 1, 1967

Berens River Day School was located in Berens River, Manitoba. It was operated by the Methodist Church of Canada, and after 1925 by The United Church of Canada. In 1874, the Department of Indian Affairs approved an annual grant for a Wesleyan Methodist school at Berens River. By 1878 records indicate there were around 10 children under the teacher, John Semmens although there was no schoolhouse. Methodist Church of Canada correspondence from 1882 suggests that a schoolhouse was eventually built but parents were unhappy as it was not in a central location. In 1885, a government Indian Agent criticized the Methodist-run school as a complete failure. Another more substantial school was built in 1888, still managed by the Methodist Society, and later, it appears a Government-run school was also built. There are unfavourable reports of the school in church records in 1897, and 1906. Reports continue throughout the 1920s and 30s. By at least 1938 there was a new United Church Day School building on the reserve. Little is known about the Day School during the 1940s, but reports written in 1954 and 1958 indicate there were 2 day schools at Berens River one staffed by United Church and and another by the Roman Catholics. The United Church-run school was referred to as Berens River No. 002. The Day School(s) closed in 1967. Further research is required to learn more information about the operation and general history of the school.

Bingham Memorial Hospital
Corporate body · 1922-

The Rosedale War Memorial Hospital was located in Matheson, Ontario. The small hospital first opened in 1922, financed partly by funds from the Forward Movement of the Presbyterian Church in Canada, the Woman's Missionary Society of The Presbyterian Church in Canada, and a service club called the Rosedale Hospital Circle in the Rosedale area of Toronto. Accommodation soon became inadequate to meet this need for hospital services in the area. In 1934 a bequest of $25,000 was left to the Woman's Missionary Society of The United Church of Canada by Mrs. George A. Bingham, whose husband had been an outstanding surgeon in Ontario. The gift was designated for a new hospital at Matheson, to be named "The Dr. George A. Bingham Memorial Hospital." In 1954 the new hospital was opened to be operated jointly by the Woman Missionary Society and local committee. In 1958 the community took over the complete operation of the hospital under the new Ontario Hospital Services plan. The WMS equity in the building was made a gift to the community. The WMS relationship with the hospital terminated December 31, 1958. The hospital is still operational.

The Brechin community was made up largely of coal miners' families. The first Methodist church services were held in homes, beginning in 1905. By 1910, Brechin was part of the Wellington Circuit, which included five preaching points: Wellington, East Wellington, Brechin, South Wellington and Cedar. A community hall, known as Brechin Hall, was moved onto a lot donated by the CPR on Estevan Road; it was used as a day school and Sunday school.

Corporate body · 1959-

The first United Church Chaplain, Rev. M.J.V. Shaver, was appointed to the University of British Columbia after its creation by BC Conference in 1959. An interdenominational committee, the Anglican-United Joint Chaplaincy Committee, was formed in 1969, through the BC Conference Committee on Church and State in Education, to begin the process of creating a joint chaplaincy at UBC. In 1970 the Anglican United Campus Ministry (AUCM) was created. In 1974, the AUCM and the UBC Student Christian Movement (SCM) merged to form the Cooperative Christian Campus Ministry (CCCM) at the University of British Columbia.

Canadian Ecumenical Action
Corporate body · 1973-

Canadian Ecumenical Action began in 1973 as People's Opportunities in Ecumenical Mission (or POEM), for the development and support of new expressions of mission, and support of the expression of faith in work and in daily life by lay people of all churches and faiths. Rev. Val Anderson served as the founding coordinator of the new organization, which was originally organized into the Planning Board and standing committees (most prominently the Executive, the Finance Committee, and the Nominations Committee), the office, and numerous smaller committees or activity groups responsible for specific programs or projects. From the beginning, POEM served as a seedbed for other ventures, providing phone and office services, information, advertising and support through its newsletter and network of volunteers, and in some cases providing space or funding support. Many endeavours began as ventures within POEM, and eventually came to be independent.

In December 1976, POEM's name was officially changed to Canadian Ecumenical Action (CEA); however, the mission, and the organization of the work, remained substantially unchanged. Programs introduced between 1976 and 1979 included Alternatives in Justice and Corrections, the local chapter of the Canada-China Program, the Single Parent Network (also known as the Single Family Network and the Single Parent Action Network or SPAN), Poverty Focus, and the SFU Campus Ministry, among others.

By 1981, CEA's activities were clearly organized into the four divisions. Communication, Education, Community Action, and Administration, each of which had its own managing committee and reported separately to the Board.

CEA was also involved in organizing the 1983 World Council of Churches in Vancouver. CEA's orientation during this time was changing more and more towards sharing and cooperation among peoples of all faiths, rather than just Christian faiths, and in 1985 constitutional changes were made to reflect CEA's emerging identity as "a multifaith community action organization." By the early 2000s, the organization became the Multifaith Action Society, dedicated to the facilitation of interfaith education and dialogue.

The Coqualeetza Industrial Institute, also referred to as Coqualeetza Residential School was located on the shores of Luckakuck Creek in Sardis, British Columbia, about five kilometres south of Chilliwack in the traditional territory of Skowkale First Nation. It was operated by the Woman's Missionary Society and the General Board of Home Missions of the Methodist Church of Canada, and after 1925 the Board of Home Missions of the United Church of Canada. It was first founded as a day school in 1884 by Missionary Charles M. Tate and his wife, Caroline. Two years later, they began boarding some students in the mission house, first at their own cost and later with the support of the federal government and the Woman's Missionary Society (WMS). In 1888, the WMS built a residential school named the Coqualeetza Home, which continued to operated until it burned down in 1891. With some help from the federal government, the school was rebuilt and opened as the Coqualeetza Industrial Institute in 1894. In 1900, the General Board of Missions took over from the WMS. In 1924 the federal government built a new building to accommodate 200 pupils, which opened in October. In 1925, The United Church of Canada took over operations. In 1939 the Institute closed, and afterward the building became the Coqualeetza Sanitorium under the management of the federal government.

Cross Lake Day School
Corporate body · 1901-September 1, 1969

Cross Lake Day School was located at Cross Lake, Manitoba. It was operated by The Methodist Church of Canada. A report from the Department of Indian Affairs indicates that in 1882-3 a school was being built, with students being taught in a local home for the time being. In 1892 the school was listed in government records as Methodist, prior to that it had been labelled "government." The school was closed temporarily in 1901 for the construction of a new building, and after that, it was still operational until the 1940s. By 1938 the Department planned to build a "new improved Day School" at Cross Lake which would function as both a day school and residential school. It is unclear if this was completed, but in 1943 Church officials accepted an offer from the Department to convert a large warehouse into a day school. A church report in 1954 indicated that there were two United Church and one Roman Catholic school in operation at Cross Lake. A 1963 report lists an additional school, and a 1966 report indicates four United Church affiliated classrooms at Cross Lake. Government records suggest the United Church-run school was closed in 1969 (or perhaps transferred to another denomination). Further research is required to learn more about the operation of the schools and their general history.
