If you are a visitor to Halifax, make sure to see St. Paul's Anglican Church. It was built in 1750…read moreand is the oldest standing Anglican church in Canada and the oldest building in Halifax. The inside is quite pretty and there is even a royal pew at the front for when the Queen visits. There is also evidence of the Halifax Explosion and when you enter the church, you can see a piece of wood stuck high up in the wall. And if you go on the Halifax ghost tour, you will learn about the man's facial profile in the stained glass window that remains even when they replace the window...creepy.

Like my predecessors (yelp reviewers), I have not visited this church on a Sunday morning in my…read morenicest slacks - however, I have been in during evenings when the drums are thumping and toes are tapping. This church is located on Barrington Street, facing the historic Old Burying Grounds. Upon entering the front door, the library smell mixed with the pie-in-the-sky ceilings will have you awe struck. Curved bench seating directed at the alter, or alternatively stage, enables tons of great places to cozy in with a great view. You can choose to sit in the balcony area which may give you slight feelings of grandeur. Above the entrance is a great wooden balcony giving you a bird's eye view on the whole place. It's nice to pop up here during the show, just so that you can take and breath and take it all in. There is no bar, so bring a mini-sip or a juice box if you tend to get thirsty. If you're feeling truly retro or maybe just pious, dress in your Sunday's best, complete with bonnet and shin length skirt. St Matthew's Church is a fantastic venue for musicians and spectators alike. It's comfortable, relaxed and of course glorious in its beauty.

I went through a few spiritual bumps a few years ago and I was questioning everything about my life…read moreand sort of felt like I needed to figure things out. Well, church was not my thing, but the service was amazing and the pastors are kind and they have an awesome community presence especially when it comes to helping out the homeless (I'm not sure if they still have the breakfast program on Sunday mornings). I grew up in the Middle East where crazy rock concerts in a church are pretty much frowned upon, so I was super curious about this, since I've heard a lot of good things about this spot. But I finally managed to attend a concert at the church and the acoustics are simply amazing. This a perfect spot for a folk/acoustic concert. My co-worker and I decided to partake in a few shows for the Halifax Pop Explosion and we were both mind-blown but the awesomeness of the spot.

On the Windsor Street side of this quaint little, but not so little church, you will find a darling garden, outfitted with colorful handmade flags, a bench, and a prayer box. Walking by will have you smiling, if you turn your head and take in this calm little space. Sitting for a ponder is encouraged, as this church seems very welcoming and community oriented. They plant lovely flowers, and whoever tends to the beds has a green thumb and a heart of gold. This little botanical nook is indeed a gem, and a reminder of good will and joyous peace to all! Well done, Lutheran Church of the Resurrection. Your flowers and inspired messages always make my day a little more luminous.

Fort Massey United Church is a beautiful building built in 1871, located at the top of Tobin St…read more Although I've never attended mass at this church, it is promoted as being inclusive and accepting of people belonging to any church or faith that chose to worship there. I've been to Fort Massey numerous times for the community events that it houses. There are many faith oriented meeting and retreats (you can find details about these on their website) as well as events that are less related to spirituality. For example, every Wednesday at 6:00pm a certified yoga instructor teaches a yoga class for only $8 per person. I joined Weight Watchers a few summers ago and attended the local weekly meeting at Fort Massey. I liked the cozy atmosphere and friendly faces more than the other meeting spot I tried, and it almost made me feel relaxed being weighed in public! Weight Watchers meetings are held every Wednesday and Thursday at 12pm and Saturdays at 9am. Hot Hint: If you are interested in attending Sunday mass at 10:30 feel free to bring you little ones along, there is a staffed Sunday school and nursery.
