The Old Colony Mennonite (Alt-Kolonie Mennonitengemeinde) congregation at Reinfeld, Manitoba traces its beginning to 1936 with the reorganization of Old Colony Mennonites who had not migrated to Mexico or those who had recently returned from Mexico. In 1957 the former school in Reinfeld was remodeled into a church and dedicated on 29 September 1957.

In 2010 the congregation's service was in Low German and the church was led by Aeltester Peter Elias.

The congregation is part of the Old Colony Mennonite Church of Manitoba.
