The All Saints Church is the oldest surviving church in the village of Mount Pleasant. In 1845, the land for the church and cemetery was donated by Richard McAllister. Construction started soon after. To keep costs down, lumber from a nearby farm was used with labour supplied by the parishioners. The church was built in the Gothic-vernacular style and still retains many of its original features such as pine floor boards, alter and original oak furnishings and pews.
Although the church was not built until 1845, the first recorded burial was James Ferris who died on January 5, 1823. His remains may have been moved here after the cemetery was established.
The church went through many years of hardship after the death of one of its generous benefactors Abraham Cook in 1864, and other wealthy parishioners were no longer active in the church. It is said that the clergy lived off of the produce donated to them by the congregation during this difficult time.
