Eglise unie Wesley / Wesley United Church

From 1866 until they built a church of their own, Methodists in Beebe Plain shared the Union Meeting House, now known as the Advent Christian Church, with other religious groups. Their first house of worship was built in 1877 on the site of Beebe's former Municipal Hall. By 1890 the congregation had outgrown that building, and a larger church was commissioned to Benjamin F. Kezar. The new Beebe Methodist church, diagonally across the street from the first one, was consecrated on January 13th, 1891. After church union, Wesley Methodist became the Wesley United Church of Canada on June 10th, 1925. The building is a fine example of Classic Revival style and retains notable decorative features, including a cornice with unreadable detail, fancy-cut cedar geometric patterns in the pediments, and a Palladian Art Nouveau stained-glass window in the facade.
