St. Paul's, Bloor Street

St. Paul's, Bloor Street

The Church of St Paul's, Bloor Street, is a parish of the Anglican Church of Canada in the Diocese of Toronto. Located in downtown Toronto near the denomination's national headquarters, the parish, along with Little Trinity Anglican Church, is one of historical flagship low church parishes of the diocese, and is one of the few remaining Anglican churches in Toronto where Choral Morning Prayer is the principal service twice a month (three times in months with five Sundays), rather than the more typical weekly Parish Communion.

The first St Paul's Church was constructed in 1860; the current main church in 1913. The two buildings, as well as the parish hall (Cody Hall) are now joined together by an Atrium.

Several Wycliffe College professors and teaching staff serve as priests at St Paul's, including the rector (who also teaches at Tyndale University College and Seminary) and Reginald Stackhouse (an honorary assistant). St Paul's is the largest church in the diocese, and occasionally hosts functions that would normally be held at the Cathedral Church of St James.
