The Rivercrest United Church in the Rural Municipality of West St. Paul was built by military veterans who lived in Rivercrest, a special residential development created in 1946 for returning Second World War veterans. The church closed around 2010 and the building now houses the Rivercrest Daycare.
Among the clerics who served at Rivercrest United Church was Thomas Burridge Pearson.
