A section was bought for £10 on the main West Coast Road about a mile west of Springfield about 1907. A building from the Christchurch Exhibition was bought by a Mr Cassidy and locals raised £200 to convert it to a church. Bishop Grimes opened the church, which seated 120 people, in 1909. The steeple at the West end was later blown down. The last Mass was celebrated by Father Hunter on December 14, 1974. The building was later demolished.
