*The following photos and history were taken from the
official St. James Westminster website and Facebook page.
As early as 1857, the year the Anglican Diocese of London was established, European settlers living on the south-west (Westminster) fringe of the City of London started holding worship services in each other’s homes. In 1873, on part of a 150 acre plot of land acquired by Colonel John B. Askin, the first modest, brick St. James Westminster Church was built – on Askin Street. The founding rector was Rev. Evans Davis. Four years later, in 1877, the current Gothic-revival church was erected; the old church became the Sunday School, and is now the Hall and Administrative Building.
On opening day, November 15, 1877, 2,000 worshipers squeezed into 3 services to celebrate the new church building. They were joined by the Governor General of Canada, the Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario, and Bishop Isaac Hellmuth, second Bishop of Huron and first principal of Huron College. Hellmuth was the guest preacher for the day.
Reverend Davis led the church for 44 years and became Dean of the Diocese in 1913. He was the first of just 8 devoted St. James Rectors to date. A beautiful stained glass window at the west side of the church was dedicated to him, depicting the story of Christ challenging the rich young ruler to a life of service: “Go and sell that thou hast and give to the poor.” That message of outreach and service became a cornerstone of this parish.
Pretty cool, amirite!!?? Iknow!! Plus did you know what else!!?? Won times, my pop had to practice a theatreshow in this steeplehouse!! For reals!! He says it the insideparts are amayzazing!!
