CHIMING MINISTRY
The Chiming Ministry plays the organ chimes of our Church to welcome those attending our services and provide a benediction for those leaving worship. Our chimes also serve as a gentle reminder to our surrounding community of Christ’s presence on Sunday morning.
AWARDS and scholarships
Islington United Church and its music staff are delighted to present the tenth annual Don Banks Music Awards. The purpose of this award is to recognize and encourage young musicians, and was established by the late Don Banks to unite two of his passions – the love of music, and the nurture of young people.
Don was an elementary school principal in Etobicoke, and a respected and well-loved member of Islington United Church.
Join us for the final competition on Saturday, May 2, 2020 at the 7:00 pm concert.
