[edit] History

The River Denys Gospel Hall, also known as Blues Mills Gospel Hall on Cape Breton Island, resulted from Gospel meetings conducted by Isaac McMullen in 1955. Four families were involved in the formation of the assembly, those of Don MacLennan, John MacLennerl, Gordon Cummings, and David MacDonald. Elders have been Don MacLennan, David MacDonald, Dave MacDonald Jr., John Bain, Fred Bartlette, and Don MacNeil. Several workers have been commended by Blues Mills Gospel Hall to the field in Venezuela and to local work. About 60 adults and youngsters attend the assembly.
