Pictured is local MP, Jamie Schmale, with St. John’s Anglican Church, Ida, Rev. Peter Mills, at last month’s Community Appreciation event which brought out approximately 100 guests to acknowledge and celebrate the organization’s two centuries of service to the community.
Another 200th anniversary will be celebrated this month by St. Paul’s Cemetery on Zion Line, reminding us of the important role of church organizations in the life of the small village as the community was first developed. At this time of dramatic change, one wonders what testaments our generation will leave to future generations 200 years from now.
