Parking Now AvailableAt The Vista on Sparks David is looking very happy in this photo because after many long years, we now have underground parking available at The Vista on Sparks! It will take some time for all of us to learn and adjust, so please be patient with one another. The full instructions are linked below so please read them carefully. Basically, entry is off Queen Street, immediately east of the Cathedral, and all our parking is on the P1 Level. You MUST have the code to enter the parking garage and to re-enter and access the elevator (glass door across from the Cathedral's new east steps). The code is 4120. It will be posted at the reception desk and listed at the bottom of the newsletter each week. When it changes, there will be ample notification. If you enter the garage and there are no spots available, you will need to exit and find parking nearby. Happy parking! For more infomation visit:

Let Light ShineThe Canadian Campaign for St. George's College Jerusalem St. George’s College Jerusalem is a gem of the worldwide Anglican Communion, welcoming thousands from around the world who seek to see, feel, and understand the biblical and contemporary richness of the land of the Holy One, and the Christians, Jews, and Muslims who live there. It is highly unlikely that pilgrimages will resume in the next twelve months and there are insufficient funds to provide already-reduced salaries for the College’s staff and essential operations. Let Light Shine: The Canadian Campaign for St. George’s College Jerusalem is seeking to raise $250,000 to cover these basic costs in 2025.Your support of our partner diocese through this campaign is greatly appreciated! Please consider making a donation.
