History of Our Parish

Part of the Community

Ever since the first service was held under a tent on the hill in 1921, Transfiguration has been a part of the local community in the Yonge & Eglinton area.

Over our nearly 100-year history, we’ve held concerts, art fairs, barbecues, pageants, and innumerable worship services; we’ve married many couples, and we’ve buried many friends and family; we’ve seen the neighbourhood change and the trees grow; in 1980 we welcomed a Vietnamese family, and in 2016 a Syrian family; we’ve been a home to people who’ve stayed for their whole lives, and we’ve been a home to some just passing through. We seek, through it all, to embody the love of Christ and to share that love with our neighbours and community.
