Emmanuel Anglican Church Manse

This house was constructed at some point during the population boom of the later 1920s, when Sexsmith emerged as a village with close to 300 people. In the late 1940s, it was occupied by Paul and Elise Wold and their children, Melvin and Marie, but, in 1949, was acquired by the Christ Church Lutheran congregation and became the home of its ministers, who served the entire district. The first Church occupants were Reverend Martin Haave and family. At the time, the Anglican Church Manse was a smaller dwelling next to the church across the street, but, in 1963, the Anglican Diocese purchased this structure to serve as the district manse. It remained in the hands of the Diocese until 2011, when the Diocese sold its property on 101 Avenue.
