Minister's Message
In the 1960's, College Street United Church called itself 'The Church of the Open Door.' During this time it was actively involved in the wider community as a place of refuge for those who needed sanctuary.
Today, we find ourselves called to ensure our doors are open to a neighbourhood that is desiring to connect with community and be challenged to lead with just actions. In doing so we have opened our doors wide to community organizations that support the most stigmatized, marginalized, and disenfranchised in Toronto. We are providing space in our sanctuary for art exhibitions relating to the realities of our community. We are cultivating space where the church is the place where the neighbourhood's needs meet the life of the church.
In opening our doors to the wider community, we have found ourselves reclaiming the notions of the 1960's and have begun to call ourselves 'The Church of Christ's Open Door.' Adding the word 'Christ,' we have found ourselves desiring to be actively engaged in the world through Christ's call to public witness and justice. We hold closely in our hearts the call of Christ to care, community, and growth.
Come, join us.
We've been waiting for you.
Rev. Jeffrey Dale
