Mary

To Know Christ

The Fifth Sunday in Lent

Philippians 3:4b-14; John 12:1-8

Preached by The Rev. Karen Isaacs on 7 April, 2019

What do you value most in your life? A recently personality test that I took asked me to fill in “5 things that I can’t live without”. The respondents often write snarky things like oxygen or water, or honest things like their cell phone or coffee, or serious things like friends or family. If that question were posed to you, what would you answer? What would be the things you can’t live without? This answer naturally changes as we change throughout our lives. What I valued as a … [Read more...]

Let It Be To Me

Fourth Sunday of Advent

Luke 1:26-38

Preached by The Rev. Karen Isaacs on 24 December, 2017

Oh God of love, help us to hear your invitation today, as you call each of us on a journey of faith, and equip us with all that is necessary to reply, “Let it be to me as you have said.” Amen. The story I’m about to tell you is called "An Angelic Salutation", and it was written by David Walker, the Bishop of Manchester. An Angelic Salutation For a long while they sat opposite each other, gently holding hands. She with her head bent, her body racked with sobs; the Angel calm, still, waiting … [Read more...]

Joy on the Way

The Fourth Sunday in Advent (C)

Micah 5:2-5a; Psalm 80:1-7; Hebrews 10:5-10; Luke 1:39-55

Preached by The Rev. Jonathan Turtle on 20 December, 2015

“My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.” If you were tasked with assessing the health of a church—any church, this church—how might you go about doing so? One way might be based on bums in pews. At a diocesan level we call this ASA or Average Sunday Attendance. The oft unstated assumption seems to be that the higher your ASA the better off you are. Or, you might consider the financial health of the place. You could, for example, take a look at the budget, paying … [Read more...]

St. Mary and St. Martha

The Anglican Church of St. Mary and St. Martha is a joyful, growing, and diverse community of faith where we together are learning what it means to follow Jesus in the west end of Toronto.

We build on the history and deep roots of four previous Anglican churches in the area: St. John, Weston; The Church of the Good Shepherd, Mt Dennis; St. David Lawrence Av; and The Church of the Advent.

We are truly seeing God doing something new - in our lives, our families, our church and our neighbourhood and we invite you to take part in this too.
