For the past year, the dedicated members of the 190th Committee have embarked on a remarkable journey: uncovering the rich tapestry of the CBC’s history. Their tireless efforts delved into 190 years of stories, meticulously sifting through the past to illuminate the moments that truly define the church and its deep connection to the Warrenville community.
From countless documents and insightful conversations, six pivotal moments emerged – cornerstones that shaped the CBC’s legacy and its influence on the surrounding area. These pivotal moments will be showcased on a captivating historical map, guiding viewers on a self-guided tour through significant locations within Warrenville.
But the journey doesn’t end there. To bring these historical sites to life for the entire community, the committee has meticulously crafted museum-quality information boards. Installed along sidewalks, these captivating displays will weave together narratives of the past, inviting passersby to step back in time and experience the CBC’s remarkable history.
The committee extends its heartfelt gratitude to Rev. David Anderson for his invaluable guidance. His keen insights steered them towards the most significant chapters of the CBC’s story, and his generosity in lending historical materials proved instrumental in their research.
This project is a testament to the enduring spirit of the CBC and its commitment to the Warrenville community. By preserving and sharing these stories, the 190th Committee ensures that the CBC’s legacy will continue to inspire future generations.
