Islington United Church

The most warm, accepting and kind congregation you will ever encounter. The sanctuary is so beautiful, welcoming and calming, and Rev Maya will surely create a present and grounding experience for you.

Didn't even know Churches still rang the bells as I've never heard any other church do it aside for special occasions but this Church, without fail, rings them every Sunday morning at 10 am on mine and many other people's only day off of the week. This is a large suburb of people sleeping and living lives, not a town center of people waiting to get into church. Also for the past hundreds of years, church has regularly been on Sundays at 10 Am, the bells are not helpful to remind one of church, helpful to keep people away from it.

Islington has been our church for many years. Over a long time, the ministers have been terrific and the music has been outstanding. A German International school has moved into the church, adding wonderful diversity

This is such a warm welcoming community where everyone is accepted. Come as you are! There are so many great ways to get involved: food-bank, young adults, community garden, social justice, bible study, children's church (Godly Play), meditation groups to name a few. PS WE have fantastic ministers and a stellar choir.Really YOU are welcome here.

Islington United Church has been my church home for over 30 years. It is such a welcoming place and the friendships i’ve made here while i was young still continue to this day. Our Son was baptized here recently and loves Godly Play with the other kids. The church really cares for the congregation and the community in which it is in. They offer so many programs to help others in need and there are so many great groups to join in on if you desire. It feels great to be back in person at the church after the pandemic too. A really welcoming and warm place i look forward to going every Sunday with my family.

This is not just a church, it's a family where all are welcomed. Feel free to join us this Sunday and you will be glad you did. God bless you.

I had my wedding at Islington United Church. The church is beautiful as well as everyone that was involved. Rev Maya officiated our wedding, she did an amazing job. Her prayers & words were so warm, my family and friends loved listening to her. I wouldn't have chosen anyone else to officiate our wedding.Jason Locke was the musician for the ceremony. He was amazing as he granted all my requests. He also learned the song I requested for signing the documents and played it beautifully on the piano.Margaret, the wedding coordinator was also amazing. When we met her, she was accepting and a joy to talk to. She helped guide us through the ceremony and what to expect on the day of.Highly recommend this church!!

Lovely building! Thanks to Tom the sound guy, and to Dunc for inviting the chorus to sing.

This is a very beautiful and welcoming church. The music is always up-lifting. The lead minister is a lovely, caring person. The music director is an extremely talented musician. The music is always a highlight.The mission is the church is progressive and open.It is a great place to worship!

Islington has been my home church for 40 years. I don't live nearby anymore but i keep in touch, enjoy the online socialization available and stop by and participate whenever i can. I can’t imagine missing Christmas there. Ive probably participated almost every year for the past 25 years.Growing up at Islington from childhood to youth to adult has been a wonderful experience. I love being able to bring my own kids now and share in the love that is IUC.
