The first church in Serediak district was built in 1904--1905, and was registered under the Statutes of the North-West Territories. Either in 1919 or 1920, lightning struck the building and it burned to the ground. However, in 1922, a new church was built on the same site and it continued to serve the parish until 1966, when once again fire of undetermined origin completely destroyed the church building.
