St. Denis Church, Barronsfield Road, Minudie, N.S.

By 1968 the population of Minudie had dwindled to such a degree that the Church doors of St. Denis closed for regular mass. In 1975 a committee was struck to restore the building. In 1993, St. Denis Church was designated a Heritage Property, and the Restoration Committee of St. Denis started preserving this grand old church. Today the Blessing of the Crops Mass is still celebrated every year, on the third Sunday in August. There is a bake and harvest sale followed by an afternoon Blessing of the Crops Mass. A concert is held inside the Church, concluding as dusk falls.
