Glen Leslie Church and Cemetery
On November 21, 1914, a meeting was held to consider building a church at Glen Leslie. A subscription list was drawn up with cash donations and volunteer labor promised. Alfred Olson was hired as the carpenter for $4.00 per day. The 20’ x 30’ log church was built on ten acres allotted for a church and cemetery on SW 6 72 3 W6. By March 1915, the logs were hauled and construction began after spring work. Total cost of the Church was $468.00. The first church service was held on October 30, 1915 and continued until 1964.
The Historic Site
On October 6th, 2011, the Glen Leslie Church was designated a
Provincial Historic Resource by the Minister of Culture & Community
Development. The church remains one of the few pre-1920’s structures
left in the area.
