History Biographical: 

There has been an Anglican priest in Blind River since 1893, and “The Church of Our Holy Saviour” was built in 1902 and consecrated by Bishop Thorneloe in 1903. Like many churches of its name, “The Church of Our Holy Saviour” has been abbreviated through the years to “St. Saviour's”. At the time of construction, this church cost a total of $1500, mostly raised and collected by the women of the parish.

In 1977 renovations were undertaken on the church structure and a parish hall addition was completed at St. Saviour's. The addition was dedicated by Bishop Nock. In 1982 substantial renovations were undertaken at St. Saviour's including repair of plaster, interior painting, an upgrade to the heating system, and the application of a new roof and siding. At the same time the rectory was remodeled and the parish hall was re-shingled.
