Many years ago, a missionary by the name of Canon J. T. Richards wanted to build a church but did not have the funds. Canon Richards commissioned the local people, and they made seal skin boots and sold them to raise money. Not only did the skin boots raise funds to build the church, but they also employed the coastal people!
The church was completed in 1931 and is known as St. Barnabas Anglican Church by the locals. The church is a heritage sight with a unique gothic style and architectural features.
