The building, built in 1901, served as a Meeting House for a Mennonite congregation until 1975. At that point it became a Retreat Centre of the Mennonite Church of Eastern Canada. In 1992 a group (now known as the Blenheim Ecumenical House Church) assumed responsibility and initiated a Bible Study Program [see Announcing a new Bible Study Program for all Christians].

Blenheim serves as a quiet place in the country for family and church gatherings, worship, personal retreats and Bible study courses. For information or reservations, email Mary Sauer, phone 519-744-9005 or write to Blenheim Retreat Centre, 78 Shadywood Crescent, Kitchener ON Canada N2M 4J2.
