Administrative history
Linden Park Evangelical Association Church was established ca. 1856 as Market Street Evangelical United Brethren Church;
In 1946, the Evangelical Church and the United Brethren in Christ united to become the Evangelical United Brethren Church. This faithful group realized that if the witness of the church was to reach its full potential a move to the Mountain was necessary. Hamilton was experiencing very rapid growth and the Mountain was the scene where this was taking place. In 1953, the Conference Mission Board gave its approval. In 1954, a site was purchased at the corner of what is now known as East 16th and South Bend. The extent to the vision can be more fully appreciated when we realize that at the time of purchase the site of our church home today was a cow pasture.
Work proceeded quickly and in 1955 the Dedication Service was held in the Church. The dedication of the Christian Education Wing occurred in 1961.
In 1970, the congregation united with the United Church of Canada. The United Church of Canada marked forty years in 2008 with the Evangelical United Brethren as part of its heritage.
