Institutionele geschiedenis
St. Stephen's, Micksburg was the first Anglican church in Renfrew County to be built, winning the congregation a set of Communion Vessels; however, there was a controversy when construction began in 1858. The farmers wanted the building set square with the survey lines, but the Rev. William Henderson refused to bless the church unless it was set traditionally with the door in the west and the altar in the east. The following year, the farmers jacked up the church and swung it around to the position they wanted. A new stone church was built under the leadership of the Rev. R. James Harvey (1879-1887) to replace the old log building. This church building was eventually outgrown and a cement block structure was erected in 1907. The new St. Stephen's, Micksburg was heavily damaged by an acetylene gas explosion in 1909, but by the next year it had been reconstructed. The church was consecrated by Bishop Charles Hamilton on May 5, 1912. By 1999, repairs had been made to the church. St. Stephen's is part of the three point parish of Stafford.
