- Abstract
This article examines the historical process of the development of the community of Canada. It focuses upon the routinization of the religion and its effect upon the members. A sociological perspective, and excerpts from life-history narratives (1938-1960), illuminate the challenges and transitions involved in building a community without the aid of clergy, and of negotiating new religious identities and gendered relations.
