Our History

Description of Historic Place
 
New St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church is a large red brick Victorian Gothic Revival church with a square corner tower and a partial lower level, on Carnarvon Street adjacent to its Carpenter Gothic predecessor, Old St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church. It is located in the neighborhood of Albert Crescent, near New Westminster’s historic downtown core.
Heritage Value
 
Built in 1888-89, the New St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church is associated with the expansion of Old St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, which sits adjacent to this more recent building. The original St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church was the first Presbyterian church to be built in the Mainland Colony of British Columbia, and reflects the faith of the Royal Engineers who settled in the city after their disbandment in 1863. Both churches are significant for having survived the Great Fire of 1898, which devastated much of downtown New Westminster. The growing congregation necessitated the construction of this larger new church in 1888-89, and in 1922 the original church was raised and remodeled for use as a church hall and Sunday school.
 
The New St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church is of architectural significance as a fine representative of the Victorian Gothic Revival style. The interior is particularly noteworthy – a soaring space with Douglas Fir hammer beams
connected by tension bars, native cedar wood-lined ceiling and a stained-glass rose window that forms a backdrop for the organ. At the west end is a gallery with a carved wooden balustrade. The organ, manufactured by Warren and Son of Toronto, was installed in 1891, and was at the time one of the largest organs West of Winnipeg. Much of the interior wooden carving is original, executed in native alder to designs of the architect by the Royal City Planning Mills.
 
The church is valued as a significant surviving design by George William Grant (1852-1925), a prolific architect who designed much of the built environment in downtown New Westminster before and after the Great Fire. Grant undertook over one hundred commissions in New Westminster during the period 1888-1892 including landmarks such as the Provincial Exhibition Building at Queen’s Park (1889), and the New Westminster Court House (1890- 91).

Character-Defining Elements
 
Key elements that define the heritage character of the New St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church include its:

– location adjacent to the earlier Old St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, now the Emmanuel Pentecostal Church Hall
 
– ecclesiastical form, scale and massing as expressed by its irregular, picturesque massing, side entry and prominent corner tower
 
– front gabled roof with side gabled projections, clad with cedar shingles
 
– masonry construction, including a battered rubble-stone granite base, and red brick cladding and walls, with a stretcher bond every six courses and corbelled courses at the top of the walls
 
– Victorian Gothic Revival features such as the pared Gothic arches over the pointed arch window openings, large inset Gothic pointed arches on the front and side facades, side elevation buttresses and a rose window
 

– fenestration, with openings of vertical proportions, including: multi-paned wooden-sash windows with opening
central panels, flashed with coloured glass; rose window in apse; groups of three windows in gable ends; and
circular windows at peak of gables
– interior features such as: cedar wood-lined ceiling; Douglas Fir hammer beams connected by tension bars;

BIBLE QUIZZING

 
“Bible quizzing gives the tools to create a meaningful life. No greater tool can be found than that of understanding the word of God in the heart.”
 
For every child that joins the quizzing ministry they become exposed to the Word of God that will leave lasting impacts throughout their life. Bible quizzing not only enhances their knowledge of the word but helps develop growth and character early on in their childhood. These children improve on their study habits, gain more confidence in themselves, build team work as well prepares them for future ministry. This stretches beyond the church but across the UPCI meeting fellow quizzers and lifelong friends.
 
Working with these little people is one mission’s field in itself because where they go, who they meet and what they will do in this lifetime is a testimony to their life and how they minister outside of the church. On behalf of the coaches we would like to thank the parents for entrusting their children with us. As they leave imprints on our lives we only hope to do the same. Bible Quizzing is just one piece that will be carried on throughout the rest of their lives.
 
Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy Word.
Psalm 119:9-16
 
For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged-sword piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents heart. Hebrews 4:12
 
Thy Word is a lamp unto me feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105
