It is said that Father Dagnaud was somewhat envious of the other churches which had been constructed along Saint-Mary’s Bay. The Sacred Heart Parish in Saulnierville had built this church in 1880 and had added on to it a few years later. Father Dagnaud decided that Church Point had to have a church that would never need adding-on and would be the queen of all churches in the region.
