CCDP Walking Group

CELEBRATING CHRIST’S REIGN ON A SPIRITUAL WALK: The Rev. Dr. Stephen Drakeford and Brad Lennon will lead an 8 km urban hike on the day just before Advent begins, Saturday, November 30. Beginning from the church office doors at 10 a.m., our group will travel by streetcar to the St. Clair West subway station. Walking from there through the Cedarvale Ravine, we will (at 2.5 km) pass by the Eglinton West station, a drop-out point for those who might wish to return earlier than the rest of the walkers. We shall walk north from Eglinton to follow the Kay Gardner Beltline Trail. There will be another drop-out point 2.5 km later as we again cross Eglinton to head east back to Yonge Street, then South through Mount Pleasant Cemetery to the church. We can lunch together at one of the restaurants in the Yonge/St. Clair neighbourhood, but bring along on the walk something to drink. In keeping with our liturgical season, we will walk at a leisurely pace to observe Christ’s Reign surrounding us. We will be journeying on mostly flat, well-maintained trails with hard-packed surfaces.  Are are welcome! (Note: if the weather is bad, we will postpone the walk.)

The Story behind our

Tracker 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.
