Histórico
In 1912 Father Patrick Beaudry obtained two lots of land in Edson from Mrs. J. O’Reilly residing in Grand Forks and a small church with a seating capacity for 40 people was built under his care in the Autumn of 1912. On November 10, 1912 it was dedicated to St. John the Evangelist and on July 22, 1922 Archbishop O’Leary blessed the church on his first visit to Edson. In 1926 the parishioners changed the name of their parish to Sacred Heart (though the reason for this change is not documented). In 1951 a new church was built an on Oct 19, 1952 Archbishop MacDonald blessed the cornerstone of the new Sacred Heart Parish. The former church was converted into a parish house. The parish was served by many Oblate, diocesan and Redemptorist fathers.
