On May 26, at 4:00 PM, we will celebrate the ordination of our assistant curate, Rev. Hannah, as a priest in the Church. We will welcome Bishop Kevin Robertson, Suffragan Bishop of Toronto, and friends and family to St. Anne's for Rev. Hannah's ordination. Rev. Hannah would be more than delighted to have all of you join her in celebrating her ordination.

Thy Kingdom Come is a worldwide prayer movement that happens each year between Ascension Day and Pentecost Sunday. Just as the early disciples gathered for prayer in the days leading up to Pentecost for a generous outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon all, so do we. These precious days between Ascension and Pentecost can be infused with expectation and anticipation. Like the early disciples, we can set these days apart to pray, individually and together, for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We can cry out to God for more people to come to know the life-transforming love of God.

We invite you to join us in praying for God's Spirit to come upon us and to renew the face of the earth and upon our parish and our ministry. To help guide you in your prayer, Thy Kingdom Come offers a free prayer journal and Novena Prayerbook. 

Where is God calling us and who is God calling together? What happens when we shift our sights outward; when we seek to catch up with the work of the Spirit? Join Trinity College alumni, faculty, and students for our inaugural session in a year of exploring these questions and more in our Canadian church. All are welcome. Register today by visiting this link.

Start your Sunday morning off just right by praying choral mattins with us. This quiet and contemplative service lasts for around 50 minutes, giving space to pause for a moment and to welcome the day ahead.

This service is led by the choir, who sing responses, canticles, and the psalms set for the day on our behalf. There are some readings from the Bible, and prayers are said for the Church, the World and ourselves. There is no sermon at this service, but hymns are sung.

Join us in welcoming author, artist, and speaker Heather Beamish on Sunday, June 2, at our 10:30 AM Eucharist.

The Diocese of Toronto announced earlier this year a diocesan-wide commitment to spiritual growth and renewal. As part of that renewal, the diocese offers the following resources to help us grow in faith and spirituality.  To learn more, visit our page dedicated to the Season of Spiritual Renewal.

Pray with us each Thursday at 9:30 in the church. You can join us in-person or online on our YouTube page.

As we continue to work towards more ecologically sustainable practices in our parish, we will share the Sunday readings through a variety of formats. While they will not be included in the worship leaflet, we will have a handful of copies of the readings in the back of the church for you to collect if you wish to follow-along during service or to take home for personal prayer and reflection. You can also read the scripture lessons online by visiting the Anglican Church of Canada's online lectionary. Learn more about each week's readings by visiting Working Preacher, an online commentary provided by Luther Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota.

One of the wonderful gifts of the Anglican Reformation was the introduction of morning and evening prayer for all Christians. Known as the Daily Office, the prayer is a simple time of praying the psalms and contemplating on a scripture reading or two. You can pray the Daily Office online or with your mobile device with apps such as Common Prayer Canada, which is the Book of Common Prayer for the Canadian Church, or the Daily Prayer app from the Church of England, which includes a contemporary version as well as the classic 1662 Book of Common Prayer. Join us Thursdays at 9:30 in the church or on YouTube as we pray morning prayer.
