History
Hamilton's All People's United Church was opened in 1926 to serve new Canadians in the city, particularly Chinese, Japanese and Italian families. In addition to church services, the Mission provided community services to its constituents including summer camps for disadvantaged youths, visitation of mothers, and recreational activites for adult males. Much of the records of the Mission were destroyed by a fire in 1947, and a new building was opened in 1948. All People's was closed in 1965.
