Harpers Brook Hall was once used for worship services. Older residents remember Baptist Church services being held in the community hall. When the means of travelling became easier, many began attending the Midgic Church. It was never designated as a church building but served the community's need for a central gathering place.
Now the hall is maintained as a community center by Women's Institute.

Mount View church hall was built in 1898. Significant repairs were made on the building in 1998. Today (in 2004) it continues to be heated by the hall's two original stoves made in the Sackville foundry. The old country school stands nearby. In years gone by many school functions were held at the church hall. As the years passed by many members tended to attend the larger Middle Sackville Church. As late as the 1980's occasional services and prayer meetings were held in the hall "on the hill".

Former Church interior - Here it is set up for a fund-raising tea to help with the costs of maintaining the building.

Wood Point Church -- 1949 photo

There are records of occasional services by the Middle Sackville pastors at Wood Point during the period of 1846-1848, and of more regular services in 1865. "A neat and comfortable house of worship" was erected in 1879. In the 1880's the ladies of the Woman's Missionary Aid Society of the Middle Sackville Baptist Church met with their "sisters"in Wood Point on occasion. In 1949 the church building was repaired and turned to face the main road.
