Special note on accessibility


The sanctuary and main floor of our building are fully accessible to those using wheelchairs or having limited mobility, including a main floor washroom.

The basement and second floor offices are currently not accessible. A capital campaign is underway to fund the installation of an elevator in the building.

Most programming for children and youth happens in the basement.

While this provides ample space for movement, noisy and messy activities, we know that it is inaccessible for people who cannot use stairs.

Until an elevator is installed, we commit to finding space on the main floor when this kind of accessibility is needed by anyone involved in the RE program.
