We are a church that loves God, believes in Jesus, and supports the community.
You Are Welcome Here
Embracing all individuals regardless of age, situation, or life story. Drawing on the rich tradition of Anglican worship to create a warm, lively environment where people discover and deepen their relationship with God, while serving their neighbour through outreach to the community.
Newcomer Info
People of all ages and backgrounds are welcome to join us in worship, wherever they are on their faith journey.
We have a small parking lot at the top of the driveway, and normally we try to keep it available for those with mobility challenges. On Sunday mornings, street parking is permitted on Millside Drive beside the church and on Fulton Street, across Main Street from the church.
Wear whatever you like, “Sunday best” clothes are not required.
Sidespeople are stationed at the main entrance to the church to greet you as you come into a Sunday service, and can answer questions you might have and can help you find a seat if needed.
Our services are made up of prayers, Bible readings, and a homily (message from the priest) as well as hymns and other music led by our music director and choir members. Hymns and parts that include congregation responses are projected on the walls at the front of the church. Singing is encouraged, but you can also choose to just listen and enjoy the music.
Anyone who is baptized is welcome to take Holy Communion, but it is not required.
A collection is taken but is not required. There are guest envelopes available at the back of the church if you choose to make a donation and would like to receive a tax receipt.
Children are welcome in the service. When our Kid’s Spirit program is running (most of the school year) there will be a children’s address at the start of the service and then the children who want to participate will join the teacher in the parish hall for much of the service, returning in time for communion.
If required, there is a change table in the Narthex washroom just outside the doors on the left at the front of the pews.
