Occasional Toronto: St Thomas Aquinas Church

St Thomas Aquinas Church

This lovely small church, St Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church, is the church associated with the Newman Centre at U of Toronto which I showed you on Tuesday. It was originally the site of a coach house belonging to the Centre which was torn down and the church was constructed in 1926/27 in a 15th century Gothic style. It is quite beautiful inside as well and has been historically listed.
Taking part in Inspired Sunday. Click here for more religious buildings.
