The congregation uses the former Trinity United Church for its worship. The Cornerstone was laid in 1907 and it was completed in 1909. Major renovations were completed in 1973 after a tornado came through Chesterville. The Sanctuary was refurbished in 1985, including the installation of the carpet still in use today. In 1988, a ramp was built that made the church wheelchair accessible. In 2013, offices were installed, along with an updated Audio Visual and Sound System. Given the age of the Church, regular maintenance to the roof and the exterior are required to keep it structurally sound.
In 2021, a small garden plot was developed beside the church and it was expanded in 2022. The goal of the Ffaith (Fresh food always in the home) Garden is to provide fresh produce to the members of our community, through a self- serve Ffaith Pantry set up outside the Church during the late spring, summer and early fall. The Pantry operates 2 days a week during the colder months and continues to provide food and amenities to those in need.
