Stanley Old Order Mennonite Church (Zurich, Ontario, Canada)
The Stanley Old Order congregation near Zurich, Ontario began services in 1889. The congregation originated through division from Hay Mennonite Church and the Mennonite Conference of Ontario over concern about revivalism, use of the English language in worship and the beginning of Sunday school.
The group met in the home of Daniel B. Steckle. The congregation dissolved in 1960 when the last member, Daniel Steckle, died. It had been affiliated with the Old Order Mennonites (1889-1960). The language of worship was German.
