Estonian immigrants have brought much to Canada. Russia once tried to destroy Estonia. Please keep our memory alive in Canada.

Clearly worth saving, but that will only happen if people start looking for solutions. National Trust and ACO (Architectural Conservancy Ontario) have lots of examples they can share with the Friends.

Superb interior - the rafter-work alone would be reason enough to designate this structure

I've been in this church for several Estonian services, music and my mother's Celebration of Life service during Covid. This church is beautiful in it's own modern style and the acoustics are very good. This is a modern, sacred architectural gem in mid town Toronto - please save this one! It's deserves a place in Toronto's history.

Today's article in the Globe and Mail spurred me on.

A wonderful example of fine modernist architecture in a city which has lost too many.

A "treasure" ... must be saved from the developers.

Is the Architectural Conservancy of Toronto involved in your efforts? If not, contact them and or Natalie Bull at the National Trust for Canada. They can provide guidance and sometime money to help save important buildings.

There is no church more culturally significant in Canada or Europe. The Estonian community of Toronto should cherish this brilliant piece of architecture as a symbol of their place in Canada.

Devastating news. My heart aches for this crisis in Toronto's Estonian Community. The ARCHITECTURE of this small Church IS the ethos of a people at their finest. HEAL this wound now before it is too late.

Please, let us preserve the traces of all the people who helped create the beautiful diverse city we have today!
