Hope, Healing and Beauty in Jesus' name

Our Vision: To boldly lead in nurturing faith for the transformation of lives and the betterment of God’s world.

Our Mission: We offer hope, healing and beauty through sacred space, inclusive community, compassionate action, and excellence in worship and music, grounded in the profound traditions of the Christian faith.

We worship each week at 11 am in-person at Church and Queen in downtown Toronto and online via livestream.

Faith in Action

Located at the crossroads of Queen Street East and Church Street in the core of downtown Toronto, Metropolitan finds itself at the crossroads between poverty and wealth, isolation and inclusion, scarcity and abundance.

The natural response to the awareness of God's love in our lives is an outflowing of love back out into the world. Through our community meal program, foot care clinic, services for seniors, Peace & Social Justice committee, and direct supports for the most vulnerable in our community, ours is a community that works together to be the hands and feet of Christ.

A Church for People who Love Church

In days when so many of us feel lost, isolated and overwhelmed, at Metropolitan we know that life is better when lived together. Healing is possible through supportive community and acts of service. Belonging is built by singing together, eating together and praying for all the aching places within ourselves and our world. Being the Body of Christ means everyone is valued and has a place to contribute. Whether you have been part of church your whole life, are dealing with past church trauma, or are brand-new to the faith, please know that there is a place for you at Met. 

A Place for Sacred Music

For many, music feeds the soul in ways that words or actions do not. Met is blessed with two magnificent instruments of national cultural significance: Canada’s largest pipe organ (1930, 5 manual Casavant organ with 7900+pipes in the Chancel and 400 pipes in the gallery) and the first tuned carillon in North America with 54 bells. Our musical inheritances are not museum pieces - they are foundational parts of a living, breathing, ever-changing community. With our instruments, choirs and the Metropolitan Silver Band - the only brass band connected to a United Church in the whole country - Met truly is a place for music!
