St. Jude's Anglican Church in Greenwood Destroyed by Fire

 

A massive overnight fire in Greenwood, BC destroyed the original St. Jude’s Anglican Church, the historic elementary school, one home, and a garage. No lives were lost and the rest of the town was protected, thanks to the hard work of the firefighters.

The church dated to 1901, and was the second oldest remaining church in Greenwood. The building was a connection to the earliest days of the city and the region. Over 123 years, generations attended for baptisms, weddings, funerals, and other events.

Our hearts go out to the community of Greenwood and the many people who felt a connection to the St. Jude’s Anglican Church.
