Anglican Worship
St Margaret is part of the Anglican Communion, Diocese of Toronto. All are welcome. You are invited to participate as you feel comfortable. We stand, sit, kneel, read scripture, sing, pray and share communion (bread and wine) as part of our worship. We are called to worship God in spirit and truth and we believe God takes great delight in true worship.

Prayer
“In the Anglican tradition, we believe that our worship and our prayers and our way of living are all intimately intertwined: what we do in our prayer affects our beliefs, which in turn affects our very way of being in the world. Praying shapes believing shapes living as faithful Christians in a world torn apart by social ills.” (Collects for the #BlackLivesMatter Movement — and Beyond by Kenji Kuramitsu)
We are a praying community. Each day and week, as part of our private lives and public worship, we pray for the needs of our parish family, community and world in which we live, move and breathe. If you have a prayer concern, we would love to pray with you and for you.
We offer a rich diversity of worship experiences to reflect and meet the needs of our community. We currently have in-person service (also offered on Zoom) every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. All are invited to participate, as they are able and feel comfortable.
The first Sunday of each month is our more traditional service.
The second Sunday, we offer the ministry of healing through the Laying on of Hands and Anointing, administered by our two trained lay anointer.
The third Sunday is our intergenerational contemporary service, where we celebrate birthdays and other blessings.
The fourth &/or fifth Sunday is a blend of traditional and contemporary music.
