    I came to this church as part of my church hopping endeavour in finding meaning in life and a…read morecommunity to do life with. 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.

    My wife and I began attending Grace when we moved to Toronto, and it's become our home. What we…read moreappreciate most is the gospel preaching and community. Grateful for the leadership and the chance to be part of God's work in the city.

    Meeting up here for a free walking tour (even though the tour guide did not appear, perhaps because…read moreof the rain), I had a good opportunity to see the outside and the inside of this beautiful church as well as the lovely grounds. The first church was build here in 1803-1807 with the aid of public subscriptions and a government grant. That frame building was enlarged in 1818-19 and replaced by a larger one in 1831. The first incumbent was the Reverend George Okill Stuart, who served from 1800 to 1812 when he was succeeded by the Reverend John Strachan, later first bishop of Toronto. The second church was burnt in 1839. Toronto's first cathedral was then erected on this site but was destroyed by the great fire of 1849. The present cathedral was begun in 1850, opened for divine service in 1852 and completed in 1874. The structure is stunning, the interior is classic and peaceful. It is open to the public and you're welcome inside but please keep in mind as you do so that this is an active church so please be considerate of the other parishioners.

When I started dating my wife, one of the things that were important to her was that whoever she was with was Christian, so I decided to go with her to Walmer to check it out. That was 5 years ago, and I'm still there now. Walmer is a Baptist church in the middle of downtown Toronto, an area that seems a lot of migration between students coming to University of Toronto to study for a school year, individuals and families living in apartments while they save up for a house, etc. We definitely have a good number of long-standing members at Walmer, but one of the best parts about going to Walmer is the warm feeling you get. It's very welcoming and is a good place to check out if you're new to Toronto and looking for a new home church. The coffee's hot at our Sunday services, the sermons are always good, there's people in the congregation at every age level, the kids' club is thriving, and you're pretty much always guaranteed to make a friend or two if you're willing to stick around for a bit after the service on Sundays. Give it a shot -- what do you have to lose?

There are private groups that get together but they are even worse. Everything that is spoken in secret is spread throughout the church. IT IS BAD. There is singing and plays during Christmas , but don't expect anyone to talk to you because they have more important things to do than actually ACCEPT AND LOVE people.
