History
Parkview United Church, located at 470 Ontario Street in Stratford, was established in 1925. The congregation began as the East End Sunday School in 1924 as an inter-denominational school. Shortly after the formation of the United Church of Canada, the East End Sunday School became a congregation of the United Church of Canada in July 1925. A church building was constructed in 1926; a second building was built in 1962. In 2007, members of Centennial United Church in Stratford joined Parkview, following the closure of that congregation. Parkview is still an active congregation of the United Church of Canada.
