St. Jacobs Evangelical Association Calvary United Church Begun: 1848

A first church, of logs, was built in 1850 on land donated by Anthony Reitzel; the deed to the land is dated 1848. The church building was located in the southeast corner of the present cemetery. Philip Winkler, who travelled as far away as Ayton to conduct services, was the first preacher. A new white brick church was built in 1864 on the present site to replace the first log structure which had become too small. The new church was in use until 1914 when it was torn down to be replaced by the present red brick one. Dedication services for the new church were held from February 26 to March 1, 1915, with Bishop W. Horn of Cleveland, Ohio, president of the Canada Conference, officiating. Renovations and additions have been made since then to produce the distinctive structure of today.

St. Jacobs was on the Elmira Circuit of the Evangelical Association which included Elmira (the home base of the Circuit), Flora (later Floradale) and North Woolwich. In the early 1890s St. Jacobs was in the North District of the Canada Conference of the Evangelical Association, and included Elmira and Woolwich. H. Dierlamm and Philip Winkler were pastors in 1890. Rev. A.Y. Haist was pastor in 1893-1894 also with Philip Winkler.

On November 16, 1946 the Evangelical Church united with the United Brethren in Christ Church to form the Evangelical United Brethren Church. When the Evangelical United Brethren joined the United Church on January 1, 1968, the church became a United Church and was joined with Floradale for a short time. Calvary was placed on a two-point charge with Conestogo United Church in June 1970.

MARRIED SIXTY-SIX YEARS - Very few married people are permitted to live long enough in happy wedlock to celebrate the 66^th anniversary of their wedding day, but such was the privilege enjoyed by Rev. and Mrs. Ph. Winkler who celebrated that event on New Years Day at their home, Yonge St., in the presence of some of their children, relatives and friends. It's just six years since they celebrated their "Diamond Wedding" when a large number of their near relatives and friends took part in the festivities. Since that time some of those who were present on that occasion have departed this life. However, Mr. and Mrs. Winkler are still enjoying pretty good health, Mr. Winkler who is now in his 89^th year was a faithful minister of the Evangelical Association for many years, but retired from active service over 25 years ago. During the afternoon Mr. Winkler expressed his views on the future of the Jews, and other topics from the Bible. The many […clipping obscured] of our grand old man and his […clipping obscured] join in wishing them both […clipping obscured] of the day.

Elmira Advertiser 1 Jan 1910

Historic Building:
roots stem from the early German pioneers of the Evangelical Church. Missionaries travelled on horseback through dense woodlands to visit the isolated and lonely settlers who were eager to hear about the "Light" of life. This was around the time the foundations of St. Jacobs were being laid. Several families became keenly interested in the Evangelical Movement of the Methodist-type spiritual preaching. A class was soon formed and their homes were opened for proclaiming the Word. In 1848, a little log church was built on the site of our present cemetery and was the first church in the village. Rev. Philip Winkler, who played a very important role in establishing this church, was the first minister and Sunday School Superintendent
