The Lichtenau Mennonite Church was formally organized in 1927. In 1929 a meeting house was built at Ste. Elizabeth, Manitoba. A second meeting house was built in 1944 in Arnaud, Manitoba, which became known as the Arnaud Mennonite Church when the two congregations became independent congregations after 1944. They cooperated in some programming. The Lichtenau Mennonite Church dissolved in 1990.
