The congregation began services in 1907. Samuel Honderich is considered the founding leader of the group. The congregation originated through outreach by the Mennonite Conference of Ontario and the Mennonite Board of Missions and Charities.
The initial meeting place was at 75 Tate St. The move to King St. took place in November 1907, nine months later. Samuel Honderich was assisted by Lena Weber and Bernice Devitt of Waterloo. This mission effort was replaced by Danforth Mennonite Church in 1910.
