Who We Are

Redeemer Lutheran is a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada, Eastern Synod, Toronto Conference. We are a congregation of diverse backgrounds and ages in the west end of Toronto, Ontario.

Our Pastor is Eric Schultz.

We're a small, vibrant and diverse church at Bloor and Indian Road in Toronto's High Park neighbourhood. Together, we worship God, serve Him in our community and support each other in our spiritual journeys.

Sunday school is held during regular Sunday services. We all begin in church together. Then children 4-12 head to our one-room Sunday school. (There is no Sunday school Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.)

Younger children are welcome to stay in church. Restless little ones can find a place to play in the church hall with their parents.

This year, for our Advent Outreach Project, we're making We Care kits for CLWR (Canadian Lutheran World Relief) to ship overseas. If you're interested in being involved, just email the church.
