The church is one block south of King Road and one block east of Keele Street at 50 Elizabeth Grove. All are invited to participate once again in the true meaning of Christmas by being part of the Christmas Angel initiative, which was created to sponsor families during the holiday season. Members of the congregation have been active in this program since 1998 and thus far 170 families have benefited. When sponsoring a family, you will receive a description of the family members, a wish list with possible ideas for needed gifts, as well as the name of the grocery store at which they shop. It's not too late to become involved with this worthwhile program as there are still families in need of assistance.
