St. Andrew's United Church, located in Haney (originally called Port Haney) and Maple Ridge District Municipality, began as a Presbyterian congregation. Regular services were commenced in 1875 and St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church was built in 1888. St. Andrew's was the centre for a wider field which included congregations at Hammond, Westminster Junction, Lillooet (now Yennadon), Pitt Meadows, Whonnock, and Albion. Whonnock and Albion were combined in a separate charge in 1912. After church union in 1925, and subsequent to the closing of Maple Ridge United Church (formerly Methodist) in 1926, the Maple Ridge area churches were rearranged into two charges: Haney and Hammond. Haney included St. Andrew's as well as Whonnock and Albion. Whonnock became separate again in 1930, and in 1937 the Haney-Hammond Pastoral Charge was created, embracing St. Andrew's, Hammond, and Websters Corners. Websters Corners was attached to the Whonnock charge in 1953. In 1960, Haney and Hammond were again separated into St. Andrew's (Haney) Pastoral Charge and Hammond-Pitt Meadows Pastoral Charge. St. Andrew's was transferred from Westminster Presbytery to Fraser Presbytery in 1959, but in 1981 it was transferred back to Westminster Presbytery. St. Andrew’s amalgamated with Hammond to become Golden Ears United Church in 2012. The new congregation worships in the building formerly known as St. Andrew’s in Haney.
