New Wing Nears
Completion At
0o St. Church
hurch
After many years of planning.
and more recently, months of hard
work, the new wing of Ontario
Street United Church is nearing
completion. Special opening ser-
vices are being planned for Sim -
day, November 27, to Commemor-
ate this occasion.
Ontario Street church has long
been noted for its "big" celebra-
tions, 'In 1928, the Golden Jubilee,
of the church was marked with
special services lasting throughout.
an entire week, when young peo-
ple's rally, thanksgiving service,
congregational meeting, and other
special events were climaxed the
following Monday with a Grand
Jubilee supper and concert.
Up until that time, the church
had spent several years as a Bible
Christian .Church for which it
was built on the location where
the Huron Road Baptist Church
now stands. In 1877-78, under the
ministry of Rev. R. T. Courtice,
the new church was erected on
the present site on Ontario Street
(Highway 8). Then sometime be-
tween 1882 and 1885 it united in
the union of the Methodist
Churches in Canada, and Turner's
Church was added to the circuit.
Two additions to the church build-
ing were required, one in 1901 and
again in 1906.
In 1909 the congregation pur-
chased and installed a pipe organ,
and two years later, to supple-
ment the service in song offered
each Sunday, gowns were supplied
to the choir members.
In 1925 it entered the larger
union to form the United Church
of Canada and so has continued.
Up until the Golden Jubilee in
1928, the church had been served
by 19 ministers, and since then
four have been added to a long
list of faithful men.
More recently, in 1945, chimes
were presented to the church by
Adam J. McMurray in honour of
the memory of his first wife who
had died the year before.
