St. Luke's Anglican Church (Hanbury, Ont.) is part of the multi-point Northern Lights Anglican Parish (Haileybury, Ont.). The township has been referred to with two names: Hanbury and Harley. Officially, it is the Harley Township. The confusion in the records comes from the post office being named Hanbury, and local settlers adopting that name.
St. Luke's was near completion in 1905. The congregation hoped to have it finished and ready for service in spring. This first building burned in the 1922 fire, which burned much of the Northern Lights Anglican Parish. The new church building was moved to a new site; it's opening service was on October 11, 1925.
The church fell into disuse in 1947. In 1950 a meeting was held to determine what should be done with the building and its furnishings. With the approval of the Bishop of Algoma, St. Luke's was given to the congregation at Englehart, Ont; the materials were used to renovate Christ Anglican Church's floor, roof, insulation, and wiring.
