My grandfather helped build St. Peter's Estonian Church. My mother was confirmed there and then my parents married there in 1961. My grandmother's funeral was there in 1998. This church has a deep history and place in the hearts of the Estonian immigrants who came after WWII. Though many of my generation have moved away from Toronto, St. Peter's church was the center of our culture. It could be a wonderful Estonian heritage center telling the story of WWII, escape from Estonia and through rebuilding of our culture in Canada. The design of the church is very unique and Scandinavian Lutheran.
