So, in continuing a tradition that we started last year, you are invited to join The Reverend Ali McIntosh on Sundays for a meditative and prayerful walk in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery.

When: the Sundays of March 12, 19, 26, and April 2

Time: 11:45am-12:45pm

Where: Mt. Pleasant Cemetery (bring your pooches!)

Cost: none

Take time from your busy schedule to connect with God this holy season.

The Story behind our

Tracking Organ

Our magnificent three manual, tracker-action organ was installed in the chancel of the church in the spring of 1982 and dedicated to the Glory of God and in memory of those who died in the First World War and the Second World War.

The organ, built by the Karl Wilhelm Company of Mont St. Hilaire, Quebec, has a classical continental design. The case is made of white oak and the pipe shades are of carved butternut. Voiced in the classic French style, its 36 stops and 50 ranks are capable of interpreting a wide variety of organ literature.

Installation required considerable changes to the chancel including moving the altar forward and arranging choir seating to either side. These renovations prompted the design and production of our award-winning Benedicite Kneelers, done in needlepoint by a dedicated group of church members.
