Finding Your Way Around
 

Entering 1st Level Heritage Hall   Most adults and children enter our church at 11 Guelph Street on the ground level at the rear of our building by accessing the doors from the Parking Lots.  These entrances bring you into Heritage Hall, where you will be greeted and find our large coat room.  Down the corridor leading to Celebration Hall, you will find both Women's and Men's Washrooms and our Kitchen.  Celebration Hall is our church hall and is used for informal group gatherings.

 

Finding 2nd Level Auditorium/Sanctuary   While standing in Heritage Hall, look for the brick wall with multi openings and then the double doors centered in the large limestone wall.  Pass through these doors and access the open corridor under the auditorium/sanctuary leading to the twin stairs at the front of our building.  There you may meet others who have entered from Guelph Street through the large front doors.  Ascend either set of stairs to enter the back of our second level auditorium/sanctuary.  Ushers will be pleased to assist you with seating.

 

Looking for 3rd Level Nursery & Children's classrooms   The BabyZone Nursery and KidsZone classrooms are on the third level.  You gain access to this level by using the central stairs or the elevator located in ground level Heritage Hall.  You may wish to leave your child with our BabyZone Coordinator in the Nursery before the service or have your infant accompany you.  All children are invited to sit with their parents in the auditorium/sanctuary at the start of the service and then leave through the door at the front of the room, after the Good Book Story and singing time, to move into the third level KidsZone classrooms.
 

Difficulty with Stairs   Our building is completely accessible.  Should stairs pose a challenge, there is an elevator beside the large coat room on the ground level in Heritage Hall.  Exit the elevator at the second level/Upper Apse Gallery, go to your left and enter the door into the front of our auditorium/sanctuary.  Ushers will be pleased to assist you with seating.  If you are looking for another set of Washrooms, you will find them beside the elevator on the second level.  If you exit the elevator on the third level, you will find our BabyZone Nursery and KidsZone classrooms.
