Our Origins
In 1840, the first congregation of St. Andrew’s United Church of Pakenham gathered together in worship. The people in that first congregation, made up of predominantly pioneering families from Ireland and Scotland, had sailed across the Atlantic, then up the St. Lawrence by steamer to Brockville, then by foot to Perth and finally through rough forest trails to their parcels of land in Pakenham. For the 175 years since that first gathering, subsequent generations have continued the tradition of worship with determination, faith, love and a strong sense of community. To this day outreach remains the heart and soul of our faith family.
