Church of the Messiah

This church features rough grey limestone and a massive battlemented tower. Today, in addition to regular worship services, it serves as a neighbourhood hub — hosting the Avenue Road Food Bank, meetings, community celebrations and musical performances. Not usually open to the public, the church invites visitors to explore its rich history and contemporary use through tours and special events/activities.
