Administrative history

Stewart House Incorporated was a United Church of Canada learning centre located in the Village of Pakenham, Ontario. In 1962, Art and Elsa Stewart offered their home in Pakenham to serve as a learning centre since the other learning centre in Ontario, Five Oaks, was seen as too far away for the eastern presbyteries of the United Church of Canada. A joint committee of representatives from Renfrew and Ottawa Presbyteries was named to administer the project. The Stewarts then donated the property to the Renfrew and Ottawa Presbyteries in 1966 to serve as a permanent Christian Education centre or "retreat house" for Eastern Ontario. Stewart House was officially incorporated on February 6, 1965 and the operations were overseen by a Board of Directors. It was an accredited educational centre of the United Church of Canada. Stewart House closed in 2006.
