Beach United Church May 6, 2025 No Comments

Have you always wanted to Beach United and learn more about its history? We will have our Doors Open all weekend (Saturday, May 24 and Sunday, May 25 from 10am-5pm) as a part of the City of Toronto event. Entry is free and our building is fully accessible.

As a part of our programming, we will have organist Sebastian Moreno perform and demonstrate on our historic Guilbault-Thérien organ on Saturday, May 24 at 4:00pm.

On Sunday, May 25 at 10:30am, join us for a special music-filled worship service, as our music director Dr. Steven Webb guides us through the history of North American folk music and its relation to contemporary acts of worship and justice. Later in the afternoon at 2:00pm, we invite the public to participate in our jam session (feel free to bring your own instrument, or just your voice!) in our Main Hall.

We look forward to welcoming you into our space.

Ecofair at Beach United

Music for the Soul with Opera Revue

Beach United Church March 13, 2025 No Comments

Back by popular demand! 

Beach United Church is excited to welcome back Opera Revue on Saturday, April 19th at 4:30pm.

Opera Revue began with the question “Why does opera get such a bad rap?”. Founder and lead Soprano, Danie Friesen, came up with several answers: It’s expensive. You have to dress up. It’s snobby. You can’t drink, except during intermission. You can’t talk. It’s snobby. You can’t get up and move around. And it’s snobby. So, that’s what Opera Revue has set out to change. Their shows are a great way to introduce opera to people who have never seen it before, as well as a new way for opera lovers to enjoy it. 

Suggested minimum price is $15 – you may reserve your tickets online, or pay in person the day of the concert. We look forward to seeing you there!
