Our church services at Conway United Church are held the second and fourth Sundays of each month. For  more information, please see our Service Location and Calendar Tab.

It is believed that the worship services in Conway were held in the home of the Ingersoll family in 1858.

In 1867 Conway belonged to the Wesleyan Methodist Bath Circuit.

In 1882 the Conway Methodist Church, our current location, was constructed. On January 28,1883 Reverend Marmaduke Pearson, grandfather of Canada's Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson dedicated the church.

On September 13,1921 the McDowell Presbyterian Church at Sandhurst burnt to the ground and it was decided to merge these two congregations and worship at Conway.

Obviously Conway was a "United Church" long before we merged in 1925 to form "The United Church of Canada".

On April 24,1996, based on consensus of all, Adolphustown and Conway formed one congregation. This is why our worship bulletin starts with these words:

“We are one faith community, celebrating God’s Presence in two churches.”

We recognize the legacy of our ancestors. These were practical people who worked hard to build a vibrant farming community and two beautiful churches that reflected their spiritual faith.

As Loyalists, they were an Affirming Community, including Iroquois, free black slaves and all the other European Loyalist nationalities. Three strong faith communities built this area, the Methodists, the Wesleyans and the Quakers.

As a faith community, they worshipped together sharing the Sacraments and joyous afternoon and evening meals together.

Our furnishings in both churches including all the paintings and hanging quilts reflect their devotion on supporting and enriching the worship service.
