"One hundred years with the Baptists of Amherst, N.S., 1810 to 1910: A brief…," compiled by Rev. D. A. Steele, D.D. and Mrs. Grace McLeod Rogers, is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the history, growth, and key figures of the First Baptist Church of Amherst, Nova Scotia, over the course of its first hundred years. It focuses on the church’s religious, social, and community impact, highlighting the stories of its leaders, the evolution of its congregation, and its role in the broader Baptist and local context. Readers seeking insights into the religious and cultural life of a Canadian Protestant community during this era will find this chronicle especially valuable. The opening of the book provides an overview of Baptist beliefs and ordinances, emphasizing the symbolic nature of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper, and sets a reflective tone for the historical narrative. It recounts the extensive organization and enthusiastic spirit surrounding the centennial celebrations, including addresses, sermons, and musical performances that united current and former members. The narrative then delves into an outline of the church’s establishment and growth, drawing on early records and memoirs to detail the struggles, sacrifices, and steady progress of the congregation. Special focus is given to formative leaders such as Rev. Charles Tupper and Rev. Samuel McCully, whose personal stories and ministries illustrate the devotion, character, and impact that have shaped the church’s legacy, while also sketching the development of its physical buildings, outreach missions, and community life.
