Welcome to St. Andrew's Church

St. Andrew's is a dynamic, inclusive and historic congregation in the heart of downtown Toronto. Every week, members of the congregation gather for worship, prayer, study, service and fellowship.

You are welcome to join us for our weekly worship services; or for any of the other events and activities that take place in the congregation.

Please plan to join us on Wednesdays at noon during the season of Lent for our annual Lenten Midweek Meditation series. A number of powerful guest preachers will be joining us to help us to reflect on the important events in the last 24 hours of Jesus' life.

On Wednesday March 24, we will be joined by Dr. Laura Alary for the final week in our series.

Our weekly meditations begin at 12:00 pm with a short organ recital; the presentations are offered from 12:15 - 12:45 pm, and everyone is invited to share together in a light lunch following the meditations.

"Christian Militancy in an Age of Decline" -- Friday March 26 at Metropolitan United

InterChurch Health Ministries (ICHM) is a non-profit organization consisting of congregations and parishes, community groups, agencies and individuals working together to promote an understanding of the relationship between faith and health among their members and the wider community.

For a number of years, St. Andrew's has been a part of the ICHM network, which has included the appointment of a parish nurse. Although this position is vacant at the present time, the congregation continues to be involved with this work through the "St. Andrew's Health Cabinet".
