Get Support
Saint Andrew's is a safe place to get support.
Inclusion, compassion, community, and standing for justice are who we are.
Sunday Service
Sunday mornings are a time to come together in community; to reflect, pray, listen, sing, and practice together. Everyone is welcome as they are.
When we are together, we support each other and lift each other up.
When we sing and make a joyful noise, our hearts and being relax.
When we connect with God, Creator, the Holy One, we find peace.
Worship is Sunday mornings at 10:30am at Saint Andrew's United Church on the corner of Coburg and Robie.

Weekly, free hot meal and basic needs support for anyone facing food scarcity.
