The former McConnell United Church building, at McConnell in the Municipality of Hamiota, has been renovated into a private residence. Originally situated at Chumah, the building was brought here following the destruction by fire of the original McConnell church, on 23 May 1954. It reopened for services on 2 November 1955 and closed on 20 August 1972.
