I have known about the Cathedral of the Transfiguration for at least a decade. I was in the…read moreneighbourhood and the three towers that comprise this cathedral stood out from Woodbine Avenue. I had to take a look. The area is known as Cathedraltown because, well, there's a large cathedral. I never have set foot in it. Originally built as a Catholic cathedral, it was closed from the mid-2000's onwards. There was some issue with getting a public occupancy permit. I still think that it remains closed for worship. Last night, I was fetching food from Cafe Mozaiko, which is on the same street. You get a beautiful look at this cathedral at the end of the street from any business on this stretch. There were plenty of cars parked in front of this cathedral after I had fetched my takeout. I frankly don't think that they were worshipers. Many folks with fancy sports cars like to gather around it. I'm not sure whether it's a nice hangout for folks to chat about cars and admire rims, or if they are praying that their insurance rates don't go up astronomically. It isn't an area where you can do some illegal street racing, unless Woodbine Avenue is considered the chosen course. It is bendy, but I have never seen any crazy racing on it whenever I'm on it. It's too residential for such a setup. They cathedral is beautiful to admire from afar. However, how often it's maintained remains a mystery. It may be slowly deteriorating externally. I didn't hear any bells ringing from it. It's sad to see such a beautiful cathedral sitting there and not being used for its intended original purpose. (41)

Lo and behold, our friend was spot on - this church is awesome. I come from a chinese alliance church, so things are a bit conservative. Coming here opened my eyes to new things, such as the worship part.. It's no longer quiet or semi-loud.. The Bridge makes worship LOUD.. LOL. It's something I enjoy and have got use to. The messages are also very relevant and hits home quite regularly. Brian Childs is the pastor that does most of the messages and he is fantastic at what he does!
