Holy Trinity Guildwood During COVID-19What's Happening and How We Are Still Here for You

For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:38-39)

Social distancing need not mean faith distancing. During this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, your prayers, encouragement and support of each other is more important than ever.  Your Church of Holy Trinity, Guildwood, is here for you.

Weekly Online Service

From March 22, 2020 on, we are offering the opportunity to gather online for a weekly worship experience, which will be uploaded around 10:30 a.m. on our YouTube channel.  Our online worship service includes an offering of song, prayer, a Gospel reading and reflection, for a combined total of 15 to 20 minutes in duration.  You may also choose to view the service again or at another time better suited to your schedule.

Planned Events

To help slow the spread of COVID-19, on-site events we scheduled before the pandemic for the late March to April timeframe may be cancelled, postponed or moved to an online format. We are still working out details. So please check the events section of this website or our Facebook page for updates.

Our Office Remains Open

Although we are closed for public worship, the office remains open.  Please call us at 416-261-9503 if we can assist in any way.

Message from Stephen

Jesus calls us to “love your neighbour as yourself.” Self-care and care of neighbour and stranger are intimately connected. The deep truth is we are all one cosmic eco-system, the Body of Christ. By caring for our own health (see tips from our Parish Nurses below), you are better able to care for others, and in caring for others, you are in the words of Scripture, caring for Christ, himself (Mt 25:31-39).

Jesus is not at a distance, he is named ‘Immanuel’ because he is “God with us,” God with us in good times and bad.  With Christ as our companion, protector and guide we can successfully rise to meet even the most difficult challenges, free from fear, trusting in God’s deep love and care.

– Rev. Stephen Kirkegaard
