Quadra Island United Church History
This year marks the 120th anniversary of the presence of a congregation in Cape Mudge village, and a salmon barbecue will be held in celebration on Saturday, September 18. Although the church building itself wasn’t constructed until the early 1930s, the first Christian teachings were given in the community 120 years ago.
According to an article written in 1963 by Karen Wilson, William Brotchie of the Church Missionary Society gave the first Protestant teachings in Cape Mudge village in the late 1870s.
“Mr. Brotchie made regular visits to the village for a few years, but the people desired a more permanent form of Christian instruction and they felt that the Methodist Church would serve them as it had so many other villages on the coast,” Wilson writes.
In ‘Assu of Cape Mudge: Recollections of a Coastal Indian Chief’, Harry Assu explains how the Methodist Mission came to Cape Mudge: “The mission ship ‘Thomas Crosby’ used to put in at the villages in this area, and our people wanted a teacher and a school, so my father went aboard the ‘Crosby’ and asked for a missionary to be sent here to teach and preach. He hinted that if this didn’t happen fairly soon he might have to go elsewhere!”
Following the people’s request for a missionary, George Reid, a lay missionary with the coastal mission of the Methodist Church, came to the village in 1891. However, he only stayed for about three weeks before continuing on to Klemtu. The next missionary to reside in Cape Mudge village was J.E. Galloway, who stayed for nine months in 1892 and built a little parsonage.
R.J. Walker arrived with his family in 1893 and stayed until 1904. Walker’s tenure set the stage for the permanent presence of the Methodist Church in the village (in 1925 the Methodist Church united with the Presbyterian and Congregational Churches to become the United Church of Canada). The people of the village built a manse out of milled lumber to house the Walkers.
Together with the people, Walker built a one-room schoolhouse and a medical dispensary. He took on the roles of teacher, minister, and doctor. Church services were held in the school, and Mr. Walker preached in Chinook. If Mr. Walker was away from the village holding services or tending to the sick, Mrs. Walker would act as minister.
