General note
This congregation organized on March 5, 1893, adopting its constitution on the following April 10. First services in the new church were held on August 6 of that year. From 1904-1945, Our Saviour’s was part of the Silvana parish. In 1945 the congregation withdrew to call a pastor to serve their congregation only. The congregation purchased a parsonage in 1948. The Ladies’ Aid organized in 1893, disbanding in 1896 and reorganizing in 1903 as the Women’s Mission Federation and later known as the Mary Circle. The Mission Circle organized in September of 1950, and Faith Circle in November of 1957.
