John the Pointer

The Birth of Saint John the Baptist

Is 40:1-11; Ps 85:7-13; Acts 13:14b-26; Lk 1:57-80

Preached by Ben Tshin on 24 June, 2018

“In the wilderness, prepare the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God… Then the glory of the LORD shall be revealed and all people shall see it together…” (Is 40:3,5) Let us pray: O God, may I speak as one speaking the very words of God (1 Pt 4:11), and may your glory be revealed to us in the Word made flesh, your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. Every Sunday when we celebrate Eucharist is a feast day, we celebrate and remember Jesus’s body and blood through … [Read more...]

A World Transfigured in Christ

The Feast of the Transfiguration (Moved to Sunday, August 7th)

Exodus 34:29-35; Psalm 99; 2 Peter 1:13-21; Luke 9:28-36

Preached by The Rev. Jonathan Turtle on 7 August, 2016

“For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of his majesty,” (2 Peter 1:16). If you were to arrive at this church very early in the morning or in some great cathedral somewhere in Europe do you know what you would see? Dark and colourless windows. But if you were to stick around for a bit and patiently wait for the sun to come up you would suddenly be struck with awe and wonder at the … [Read more...]

A Sermon on the Saints of the Old Testament

Feast Day for the Saints of the Old Testament (B)

Hebrews 11:1-3, 8-12, 23-28, 32-12:2; Psalm 37:28-36; Matthew 22:23-32

Preached by The Rev. Jonathan Turtle on 4 November, 2015

Have you not read what was said to you by God, “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob”? He is God not of the dead, but of the living. At this time of year, as you well know, the Church celebrates the feast of All Saints and gathers up thanksgiving for the whole company of those who, in various and different ways, bore witness to Christ. Today we extend our thanksgiving and include the saints of the Old Testament in our celebration of faith. The New Testament teaches … [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.
