The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is the second church of the parish. Construction began in 1958 and was completed in 1959. The first church of the parish is at Janow Corners. Built of wood on a high concrete basement, the rectangular church features a shingled gable roof and three front towers topped with small cupolas. The central cupola houses a bell donated by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The basement, accessible through entrances at the base of the side towers, serves as a parish hall and includes kitchen facilities.
The church’s interior is thoughtfully designed with a main altar, two sacristies, a vestibule, a choir loft, and two side altars displaying oil-on-canvas icons of the Holy Mother of God with the Christ Child and Christ the Teacher. It seats approximately 150 people on wooden pews and includes a wood floor finished with linoleum and carpet, as well as a high angulated ceiling. The building is equipped with electricity and central oil heating. The total construction cost of $20,000 was covered through the voluntary labor and generous donations of the parishioners. Today, the parish is under the pastoral care of Prince Albert and continues to serve as an active center of faith for the community.
The church was demolished in 2018. You can read more HERE.
