The Church of St Mary Magdalene warmly invites you to join us as we worship God in Toronto. We are an Anglican Church richly influenced by a heritage both Anglican and Catholic.

Many exciting things are happening at "SMM," including a Capital Campaign to renew our facilities for the next century of ministry in this place and the ongoing work of Stephanie Martin as the Director of Music.

The church of St Mary Magdalene has achieved some fame in the Anglican Communion because of the work of Dr Healey Willan, Music Director from 1921 to 1968. His musical compositions and style of music, along with the Catholic liturgy of the parish, drew many people to experience the worship here..

We hope this web site is a useful resource for parishioners and visitors alike. Please e-mail or call the church for more information: 416.531.7955.

1.00pm      Chant Notation System Workshop

The Saturday symposium will start off with a Gregorian Mass, followed by a talk entitled, “The Spirituality of Gregorian Chant”.  A light lunch is included and then Andrew Macrae will workshop a new computer system of  chant notation, which looks like it could be one of the only user friendly computerized notation systems available.  It’s a truly exciting development.

Sunday recital at 4.30PM.  $15 or $10 for students and seniors
The recital will feature the SMM Ritual Choir – and the exceptionally beautiful Schola Magdalena.  It’s a wonderful programme.

Both are being held at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene, 477 Manning Avenue, Toronto
