Metropolitan United Church

This part of our site contains information on a typical Sunday morning experience at Met, from how we select Bible readings and hymns, to all the information a first-time visitor might need.

Here are our regular services:

Sunday 9:30 a.m. to 10:00 am
Come Taste and See
A service of Communion and song in the Founders Chapel.

This is a short, intimate service where people can find the quiet centre in the earlier morning. Come experience the musical leadership of Gerald Martindale, Prayers and Homily by the Rev. John Joseph Mastandrea, with scriptures presented by Michael Bashford.

Sunday 11:00 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
A Service of Word, Song and Prayer
The cornerstone of our week, this service is offered under the leadership of the Rev. Dr. Malcolm Sinclair, the Rev. John Joseph Mastandrea and Dr. Patricia Wright. This service includes carillon and choir and is followed by light refreshments and fellowship.

First Wednesday of the month 6:00 pm
Taize Service

Taize Worship, based on the teachings of Brother Roger from Taize France, uses music with simple melody lines and periods of silence to quiet the soul and renew the spirit. There is no sermon--just a meditative service with candlelight, prayers, readings, silence, and soft music with repetitive words. The service offers a wonderful opportunity to be silent and center on The Lord.

Led by the Met Labyrinth group and the Rev. John Joseph Mastandrea.
