The Whitewater Mennonite congregation at Boissevain, Manitoba, began services in 1925, and formally organized on 18 April 1927. The first building was occupied in 1939 with a subsequent building program in 1960. Franz F. Enns is considered the founding leader of the group. The congregation originated through immigration from the Soviet Union. The Whitewater church had seven branch congregations: Whitewater, Rivers, Ninga, Lena, Crystal City, Manitou, and Mather.
