First United Church (formerly the Knox Presbyterian Church, from 1913 to 1943) is a designated municipal heritage property. Originally built in 1916, at a cost of $25,000 to house the Presbyterian denomination; in 1943 after the Swift Current Metropolitan Methodist Church burned down the two denominations merged to form the united church.[1]
