Originally part of the parish of Rousseau, there is some debate about the founding date of the Christ Church at Cardwell Anglican records indicate that it was built in 1891 on a lot given by John Foreman, but many local families recall the construction occurring in 1880. Locally, the church was known as the Bear Cave Church.
For many years this small log church on Bear Cave Road was used regularly but by 1981 only one service a year was held at the church.
In the tradition of pioneer kinship the doors, at the Bear Cove, North Cardwell church, were never locked and the building remained open for those who wished to enter for shelter or spiritual reasons. In the mid 1980s the church fell victim to a number of thefts which saw the oil lamps, stove, pews, and organ being lost.
