About us
The congregation of Richards Memorial United Church was formed in October 1951 and met in the basement of Argyle Public School. At that time it was known as Argyle Park United Church and was part of a 2-point charge. Plans were immediately started towards erecting a church on Clarke Road. This new church was dedicated and opened in 1953.
