Armour Heights Presbyterian Church in Toronto, Ont., held a Rainbow Friendship Bench dedication to the community with Mosaic Home Care and Community Resource Centre on Sunday, June 19. The event included an outdoor picnic and celebration to kick off the start of Pride month and celebrate Armour Heights’ partnership with The 519, an organization dedicated to the inclusion of LGBTQI2+ communities.
St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont., held their annual Strawberry Festival on June 18. Members of the church made strawberry crepes, served ice cream and shortcake, and sold jars of jam. The event included musical entertainment, a bake sale, a silent auction, a used-book sale and a special children’s section. Many visitors toured the historic church during the festival as well. A lot of effort by both volunteers and the community went into making this year’s Strawberry Festival a success.
