Our Special United Church Anniversary gathering is this Sunday, June 6th at which time we will be celebrating the memorable founding of the United Church of Canada 85 years ago, in Toronto's Mutual Streeet Arena. 

Five United Church congregations - Forest Grove, Immanuel Korean U.C., Newtonbrook, Taiwanese U.C. and Northminster are gathering at Forest Grove United Church, 43 Forest Grove Drive in the Bayview Village area of Willowdale.  The final preparations are almost finalized for this event, to begin at 10:30 a.m. and conclude with a delicious sandwich and strawberry social lunch on site for the more than 300 who have signed up.

On-street parking is plentiful, but car-pooling would be advisable.  Valet parking at neighbouring schools is being arranged.

Music has always played a key role in our church history and we'll welcome the Rev. Tim Elliott and his Jazz Band to lead us in hymn singing and so much more.  Rev. Tim pioneered the Jazz Vespers services that have become a focal point of worship in several churches to-day.

Do wear your colourful wristbands to add to the festivities, as we worship together and conclude with the special luncheon.
