Christ Church (Windermere, Ont.) was begun in 1889 when the Rev. Charles Mockridge, rector of Christ Church Cathedral in Hamilton, gathered interested people for Sunday service on the porch of his cottage. Later services were held in the local Mechanics Hall until in 1900 land for a church was purchased at a cost of $25. A small cottage was later provided by the Ladies' Guild to house summer incumbents. Mockridge and his four sons helped Charles Cox, the builder, construct the church. The building was completed in 1904.
