Description
For almost a century and a half, St. Mary's and St. Paul's Anglican Church has served the Lytton area, about 150 miles northeast of Vancouver. It is the Cathedral church for the Thompson River First Nations (also known as Nlaka'pamux) at Spences Bridge in the Fraser Valley , an area stretching hundreds of miles from Merritt in the east, down to Spuzzum in the south.
The church was built around 1905 and the wooden structure still served as a place for special events like weddings and funerals until 2012 when thieves stole everything inside the church leaving only the walls and windows.
