Our building
Crescent Fort Rouge United Church is blessed with a beautiful building. From the outside, the red brick, two towers and Romanesque features give it a distinctive appearance. The south and west sides of the property have lawn and flower plantings, including the recently developed Agnes Saunders Memory Garden established in 2001 in memory of the late Agnes Saunders, who left a very generous bequest to the church.
The east side of the property was refurbished in 1996 as the play yard for the Day Care Centre which is located in the basement under the Fellowship Hall of the church building. Inside, the sanctuary space with a horseshoe balcony, a
Casavant organ 
and marvellous stained glass windows, is one of the best examples of its type and period in the country. The acoustics in the sanctuary are outstanding which allow the congregation to enjoy the beautiful music from our very capable choir. In addition, this helps to attract a number of outside choirs and orchestras who
rent
the space for concerts on a very regular basis.
The stained glass windows depicting symbols of our Christian faith were the first stained glass windows to be designed and made in Winnipeg. There are five curved top windows on each side of the sanctuary extending from main floor to upper balcony. The border around them has a vine and branch design, the grapes and leaf depicted as a medallion on two windows. At the rear upper balcony are three large windows which have the Greek symbols for Alpha, symbol of God as the beginning of all things and Omega, symbol of God as the end of all things. In the centre is the lamp of learning and divine knowledge. The windows with their beautiful, subdued colours depicting the true Christian Spirit will be treasured for years to come.
