McKenzie United Church History
McKenzie United Church has existed as a mission in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba since 1925. It was established as a Presbyterian Sunday School c. 1898 by Mr. Angus Grant in a private home in the west end of Portage la Prairie. After Mr. Grant's departure, the Sunday School relocated to 12th Street NW. The Sunday School was once again relocated to the corner of Lorne Avenue and 11th Street West in 1903 when the Sunday School became known as the McKenzie Mission. In 1957, the mission was organized as a Pastoral Charge and permission was granted from the Portage la Prairie Presbytery to construct a church building. The church was to be built in three stages. The Dedication Service for the completed basement was held on May 7, 1958 and was conducted by Rev. H.I. Bowman. Services were held in the basement until the Sanctuary was built in 1962. A Manse was purchased and finished in 1967. Part of the McKenzie Mission building was given to the Fort La Reine Museum in 1977. McKenzie United Church is located at #83 - 11th Street NW in Portage la Prairie.

With us night and morning
By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered, and confidently waiting come what may, we know that God is with us night and morning, and never fails to greet us each new day. Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented, still evil days bring burdens hard to bear; Oh, give our frightened souls the sure salvation for which, O Lord, You taught us to prepare. And when this cup You give is filled to brimming with bitter suffering, hard to understand, we take it thankfully and without trembling, out of so good and so beloved a hand. Yet when again in this same world You give us the joy we had, the brightness of Your Sun, we shall remember all the days we lived through, and our whole life shall then be Yours alone.
