With responsibility for Church Development within Toronto Conference, Council ensures wide access to its knowledge and financial resources through its partnerships with Presbyteries. Between 1993 and 2005, Council's Mission Strategy program made $1.6 million available to Presbyteries for mission strategy development over and above Council's investments in particular congregational initiatives.
Council's history is filled with such partnership stories. Its early work was taken up under the auspices of the Massey family and helped define our church's commitment to strong local congregations and to practical social engagement. Local congregations across Toronto, Sparrow Lake Camp, the Fred Victor Centre and the Massey Centre were all founded as a result of those initiatives. For 117 years our church has depended upon Council's unique capabilities to transform dreams into action; to build and rebuild a church that is real, relevant and reachable.
