It's a very diverse church which I like because they do embrace all cultures and ethnicities here. The main pastor of this church will make you want to stay as he is able to give non - judgmental sermons that are applicable to your life. I've gone to churches where I always feel like I'm being condemned, but not here. They focus on you having a relationship with God rather than a religion. They have three services but I usually go on Saturday evenings where it's less crowded and more casual. Honestly even if you go to church on Sunday morning in your jeans or tracks, no one would say anything. I do love that they include their congregation in understanding the finances of the church and where donations are going, which I find can be a place of criticism of people against Christian churches and rightfully so. They've got great presentations for Easter and Christmas and that's how I started going. They've done great renovations recently too and I am happy with the positive direction they are continuously going in. I still do visit other churches but I find that I'm more connected here.

I can't speak to the services here, but this is a very beautiful place for a wedding…read more There's an incredible amount of stained glass, a very VERY high ceiling, and even a choir area with a pipe organ, if you're into that. The pews are, like all Catholic churches, pretty hard and uncomfortable, but you only feel that way because you're a sinner. Extra points to this church to not having a creepy giant Jesus-suffering-on-a-cross statue that was so popular in the 70s-80s. This is the kind of church you picture when you think of Catholic churches. Not the weird post-modern, windowless ones that seem to sprinkle the country. The priest was also really nice and friendly, and managed to stay away from the more controversial topics (I've seen a priest give an abortion lecture during Christmas eve mass once. Inappropriate.) He also resembled a European James Earl Jones, which I enjoyed. So if you're looking to see a good example of an old-school Catholic church, check this one out!

There is a youth service on Saturdays as well, which might be important to know if you have teenagers in the family.

The church was beautiful inside with floor to ceiling windows, and lots of sunlight. The venue was spacious and I enjoyed meeting familiar faces and new vendors! Some of my fave dessert vendors: - Petite Paire - Auntie Kelly's - B×wood Coffee - Dantes Patisserie I also met a vendor named Kevin from Grand Blue Drinks, who usually sells ginger beer at farmer's markets; best stuff ever. His ginger beer is extra spicy, good for mixing into cocktails, and made with monkfruit sugar. My friend and I purchased 4 bottles and got 1 more for free at the event! 100% would attend this event again :) The vendors are all friendly and knowledgeable; all very quality and talented artisan creators!

Lo and behold, our friend was spot on - this church is awesome. I come from a chinese alliance church, so things are a bit conservative.

The messages are also very relevant and hits home quite regularly. Brian Childs is the pastor that does most of the messages and he is fantastic at what he does! This small church has a lot going on, from small groups in the church to helping the community (raising money, support for young pregnancy, etc).

We were here for the Christmas mass at 5pm. We arrived around 3:40pm and parked the car close by…read more They do have parking spots but we might stay a bit long after the mass with our friends. This cathedral was so pretty that I took a lot of pictures. Lucky that we came early, and picked our seats from the front, otherwise, a lot of people were standing at the back the whole mass. They didn't open upstairs for the crowds, because they short staff. They didn't even have choir that night, because they only have student choir, and the 5pm mass on Christmas Day was added before Christmas. There were no one could be served, and the leader of the Choir he sang the songs whole night. And his voice was so nice. And the father also needed to sing by himself too. There are 4 daily masses weekdays, but the locations were too far for us to come. That's so sad. I would like to have masses in cathedrals if possible. We will definitely come again.

Many YA members say bad words of others to the leader and make the leader revenge the persons who had feud with them. Some volunteer workers also abuse power to retaliate other YA members, such as kick them out of messenger group or exclude them from group events. Last time I had a conflict with a YA member and he said bad words about me to the leader. The leader sent a threatening email to me and scolded me and said if I dare to do it again, he will ban me from grace church. I was chocked of his partial judgement. He even did not know the truth and the whole process of conflict. He just made an arbitrary judgement based on the slander. I have reported his misconduct to the senior pastor and hope he will handle it properly. But anyway I will not go to this church expecially its YA anymore. They are even not real christians. Their minds are full of hatred and malice. I feel it's not like a church, it's more like a police station or jail.

It's been by far one of the most enriching, knowledge satisfying and kindred churches I have ever been to in my life. Would definitely recommend to friends and family who are curious to know more about the Christian faith. Location The church is located on a busy intersection of college and Jarvis. There is a Tim Hortons across the street and Allan Gardens right next door. Getting to the church is somewhat convenient if you are talk the street car (stops right in front of the building) or if you live nearby (what a wonderful stroll). It is also just a few minutes to walk to from college subway station (although in winter the few minutes seems much more longer). Since I live uptown, I have been driving down to this church through Yonge street. Not as convenient as if it were located off the highway, however, there is plenty of free street parking on Sunday mornings nearby off the streets. Did I say parking was free?? Service Service starts at 10:30am and goes until noon. There is free coffee and cookies afterwards and an open gathering session for further dialogue with the pastor after service. The service start time is pretty ideal for me, not too early and not too late. The sermons are also not too long, which is great for someone who is unable to focus for too long. What stands out for me with service here is: first the worship band and music - the musicians here are quite talented; and the focus on the bible teachings within the sermons - this church is quite theologically advanced in comparison to some other churches I have been to. There are a few different pastors who preach which gives a great variety on the sermon styles. The main pastor is Pastor Dan MacDonald, who was previously a lawyer, so you will see his logical and rational style reflected in his sermons. What I love most about the sermons here, is that they always end with practical messages of how we can apply what we have heard into our lives. I also love the fact that the pastors are open to having Q and A sessions with the congregants, which is not typical of many churches. Atmosphere The atmosphere of this church is semi-relaxed, open and communal. They focus quite a bit on building communities with a number of small groups you can sign up for after service and regular social events that connect people with each other. There seems to be quite a large population of Young professionals who go to this church and diversity of church members is somewhat mixed. There is a sense of a strong structure in terms of the backbone to this church as they have an elders, diaconate groups and discipleship and membership town hall meetings. I think the fact that is Presbyterian is probably what gives a somewhat formal feel to this church. Building This location was first opened in October 2017 after what looked to be significant renovations to the interiors of the building to the original Old St. Andrew's Presbyterian church. This building is absolutely beautiful and was originally built in the 1800s by the same architect who built the other three churches in that same block of land that surround the Allen Gardens. The interiors include simple-yet-elegant features of stained-glass windows and the main sanctuary has absolutely beautiful arched ceilings. This building is a real work of art.
