EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
For All Ages, For All Times, For Everyone
All Saints, Whitby is a large, vibrant, and growing church community that values and
welcomes everyone. We are called to reflect God’s love in the wider world.
As an inclusive and welcoming congregation, we value the diversity of all people. The
parish is LGBTQ+ friendly and in 2018, All Saints’ Vestry unanimously decided to be
recognized as an affirming church, In October 2019, the first same-sex marriage was
celebrated in our parish.
Along with a beautifully restored building—compliant
with all current codes and in very good condition—All
Saints’ is in a financially stable position with no
outstanding debts or loans. The Vestry has approved
a balanced budget every year, and the major source
of revenue is derived from parishioners’ givings.
Our strengths are numerous. We are welcoming,
interested, growing, and diverse. Parish members are
active and willing to volunteer time, talent, and
treasure in answering God’s call to us to be church in
the 21st century. In addition to addressing the needs
of our congregation, we strive to offer meaningful and necessary support to the larger
community within the context of our Christian values.
Challenges exist, too. We need to address the needs of the children and young people
who currently attend church, and attract those who do not. Like most Anglican
churches, we need to become more intentional in our welcoming ministry toward those
who are tentatively entering our church and seeking a first or renewed relationship with
Jesus.
There are innumerable skills and attributes that priests bring to a parish. We have
outlined a few that are important to us:
Be an engaging preacher, relating the gospel and other biblical teachings to the
daily lived experience.
Be an inspiring and empowering leader
Be open to innovation - open to explore opportunities for growth and mission.
Have a sense of humour
Be adaptable and flexible
Be approachable with excellent listening skills
Have the ability to reach all demographics in our diverse community
We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,
because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus
and of the love you have for all the saints. (Colossians 1:4-5)

North: Between Taunton & Conlin Roads
East: Thornton Road
West: Lakeridge Road
South: one block south of Burns Street
See the area on Google maps
HUMAN, PHYSICAL & FINANCIAL RESOURCES
Human Resources
In June 2019, we added a part-time associate priest
to our ministry team which includes two appointed
Honorary Assistants and two diaconal candidates.
All Saints’ has successfully embraced and supported
many assistant curates over the years.
There are three paid positions: a full-time office
administrator, part-time music director, and part-time
sexton.
Lay leadership is provided by two senior wardens
and two deputy wardens. Their term is four years,
two in the deputy role and two in the senior role.
Each warden is assigned an area of primary
responsibility: finance, property, human resources,
and congregational development. The Corporation meets monthly and seeks feedback
from various ministry groups as appropriate.
The leadership style of the executive team (Incumbent and Wardens) is collaborative
and consultative and works effectively in and for the parish.
There is a Parish Advisory Council composed of the four wardens, the Incumbent, and
the chairs of the major ministries. This Council meets quarterly.
- 4 -
Major lay leadership roles
include (but are not
restricted to)
Prayer Ministry Chair
Stewardship Chair
Outreach Chair
Job descriptions for staff
as well as for key
leadership roles have
been developed and
updated with input from position holders. Lay terms are typically limited to three years.
Staff performance reviews are conducted annually by the Incumbent and Warden
responsible for human resources.
Physical Resources
The main church building, constructed in the traditional
gothic style, was completed in 1866. The steeple has a
seven-bell carillon and has been a landmark in Whitby
since it was built. In 2016, the parish celebrated its
sesquicentennial.
The nave (including the balcony) has a seating capacity
of 350 with barrier-free seating. The worship space has
a south entrance with steps and there is an accessible,
ground level entrance at the north end. A comfort room,
small meeting room (capacity of 10), three sacristies,
and genderless, accessible washrooms are located
between the original church building and the parish hall.
The parish hall, completed in 1959, is attached to the
nave and is accessible by chair lift. The hall has an
updated kitchen, generous natural lighting, a loft, and a
stage and seating capacity for 150.
The office wing, which is attached to the parish hall, was constructed in 1987 and has
three offices and two upstairs meeting rooms (capacity of 10 and 20). It is air-
conditioned; there is one washroom. The office wing basement has four rooms that are
used for Sunday school, nursery and food bank. The parish hall basement has a large
- 5 -
open space, and two smaller rooms. The hall and office wing basements are connected
and share two lower-level washrooms.
The grounds are kept in exemplary condition by
the church sexton and have been recognized by
"Community in Blooms." There is a parking lot for
10–12 vehicles immediately adjacent to the office
wing, with reserved parking for two clergy and all
other staff. There is on-street parking (free on
weekends), and parking is available at the medical
building next door at a minimal fee.
All Saints’ does not have a cemetery or rectory and
does not own any other buildings.
In December 2009, All Saints’ experienced a major
fire, which mostly affected the original building.
The nave was completely gutted, the roof
collapsed, and most of the furnishings, including
the organ, destroyed by water. Within 18 months,
the church interior was brought back to its early
glory, the roof replaced, and the church furnishings rebuilt or restored. The numerous
stained glass windows were re-created, using original glass where possible; and the
chancel was equipped with a refurbished 1935 Casavant with 1,744 pipes. A custom-
crafted altar table was installed and blessed at the culmination of our 200th anniversary
celebrations in 2016.
See Appendix 1 to read more about the church buildings and post-fire features, as well
as future property plans, including a $220K Our Faith Our Hope Adaptive Reuse grant.
Financial Resources
The parish is financially sound and has no outstanding
debts or loans. A balanced budget has been submitted
every year and over the past three years a budget surplus of
$78,000 has been accumulated in its operating account.
The annual income for 2019 is projected to be $425,310 and
expenses $423,680.
Each year since 2014, the parish has undertaken a “Joyful
Giving” Stewardship Campaign, including a well-organized
and well-received Parish Stewardship Relay, which has
yielded steadily increasing financial contributions from parishioners.
In 2018 there were 325 contributing households, 150 of which contributed by auto-debit
rather than envelopes. The average contribution per household is $1125 per annum.
- 6 -
Eighty-six percent of income comes from parishioner contributions, 7.5% comes from
other sources such as fundraising (primarily the annual bazaar and plant sale), 4.7%
represents the dividend ($20,000 per annum) paid on the funds deposited with the
Diocese resulting from the sale of the rectory, and the final 1.8% is rental income for
the use of parish facilities by various community groups.
See Appendix 2 for more detailed information about All Saints’ sources of income as
well as the 2019 annual operating budget.
LOOKING OUTWARD
Our Neighbourhood and Mission Field
Whitby is one of eight municipalities in the
Region of Durham, which has a wide array of
services and facilities. It has a traditional
downtown core in which All Saints’ Church is
situated, close to shops, restaurants, parks, a
new public library, and town square. All Saints’
beautiful towering steeple helps define the
downtown skyline.
With its ever-increasing array of businesses, art and culture events, sports, dining and
entertainment options, parks, and health and social agencies, Whitby is recognized as
one of the fastest growing communities in Canada, reflected by the changing
demographic composition of both the town and parish.
The town is centrally located along the north shore of Lake Ontario, in the heart of
Durham Region and is easily accessed by major 400 series (401,407, 412) and
provincial highways (#2, #12, #7). Whitby is also part of the GO Transit network with
frequent train service on the Lakeshore East line to Toronto. With its diversified
economy and amenities, Whitby is increasingly the "Community of Choice" for business
and families.
- 7 -
Whitby is in close proximity to Trent University Durham Campus, Ontario Tech
University and Durham College, and is also home to Trafalgar Castle School, a private
school for girls. Whitby is well serviced by excellent elementary and secondary
schools, and is within an hour’s drive of over 30 university and college campuses.
While the church of All Saints is situated in the downtown of Whitby (the most densely
populated area of the entire town), the members of the congregation are not limited to
Whitby as many come from neighbouring boundaries and towns such as Ashburn,
Brooklin, Oshawa, and Ajax.
See Appendix 3 for information related to population and demographics.
LEARNING, SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT & NURTURING
Children & Youth Ministry
All Saints’ offers a Sunday School program for ages 3–13, from September to June.
This is currently offered at the 9:30am service and typically 10 to 12 children attend
each week.
In the recent past, the Youth Group met once a month with lay leaders during the
Sunday service and fundraised for FaithWorks. The practice has been discontinued
and new leadership is required. This is admittedly an area in need of renewal and also
an opportunity for growth. The congregation is accustomed to regular youth
involvement in liturgy, and there is a growing and tight knit cohort of Sunday School-
aged kids that are about to grow into the youth category and might form the core of a
revamped youth ministry.
- 8 -
Christian Education & Discipleship
The Spiritual Development Committee led by the Incumbent and chaired by a lay
leader, meets several times a year to plan Christian education opportunities for
parishioners and seekers. These are led by clergy and lay persons. Clergy will usually
lead Advent and Lenten studies and special events, such as the Kairos Blanket
Exercise. Other courses offered have included the Christian Foundations course from
Wycliffe College, as well as series on topics such as the Parables and World Faiths
created by the clergy. Group sizes for these activities are usually around 20 people.
A weekly day-time Bible study, led by a lay person, typically has 12 participants. Other
small group Bible studies, averaging 6 members, have been offered by lay people in
their homes, as well as occasional book studies and a summer time “Walking and the
Word” series.
Faith Formation
Alpha has been offered at least once (and sometimes twice) annually since 2017,
drawing both seekers and new Christians as well as existing members of All Saints’.
Numbers ranged from 15 to 20. After the initial launch in 2017, led by clergy, it is now
routinely led by a team of lay people.
Two adults and ten children were baptized
in 2018, and five to this point in 2019.
Various forms of clergy- and lay-led
baptismal instruction for parents of infants
and for adult candidates have been used
over the past few years. Most recently
Alpha videos have been used.
Confirmation classes, led by a lay volunteer, started in September with a confirmation
date set for December 1. There were 12 confirmands in 2017.
- 9 -
PASTORAL CARE & PRAYER
Pastoral Care is delivered through a dedicated team of approximately six trained lay
pastoral visitors under the supervision of the priest.
All Saints’ is currently supporting two members of the parish who are on the spiritual
journey to become vocational deacons. Once this occurs they will become more
involved in the pastoral care ministry.
In addition to pastoral
visits, All Saints’ offers a
greeting card service for
members of the parish
who are ill or to mark a
life event, such as a
special birthday or
anniversary. This is led
by one of the pastoral
care lay members.
Prayer is an important
part of life at All Saints.
Intercessions are led by
laity, and the parishioners who form our two confidential prayer teams pray daily for
individuals with urgent and long-term need. The parish also has a small team of lay
anointers, who are present at services once a month.
Each Thursday the church is opened to the community at noon for an hour, for a time of
personal prayer, reflection, or quiet contemplation. This is a ministry offered by lay
volunteers.
WORSHIP AND LITURGY
Sunday Services
8:00am: a quiet and contemplative Communion service, with BCP liturgy and a brief
sermon. This service runs about 40 minutes. Typical attendance is around 30.
9:30am: a seeker-oriented service with a shorter homily and fresh expressions of
Anglican liturgy. The service is printed in the pew bulletins, so no books are used.
Music is a mix of traditional and contemporary songs, accompanied by piano. Clergy do
not wear robes. Communion songs are led by two volunteer singer/guitar players. This
service has attracted a number of new people, especially young families, since it began
in May 2018. Duration is about 45-50 minutes. Typical attendance is 90-100.
- 10 -
11:00am: a traditional BAS Eucharistic service. Music is led by the chancel choir and
organ. On a fifth Sunday, there is Morning Prayer instead. This service runs about an
hour and a quarter. Typical attendance is 80–90.
During the summer months, the 9:30 and 11:00
am services are combined in a 10:00 Family
Eucharist format with a shorter liturgy.
Advent and Christmas
Evensong, led by the choir, is usually held on the
first Sunday of Advent. There is a candlelit Taizé
service one weeknight in Advent. This service is
led by clergy and lay volunteers and offers prayer,
reflection, and short addresses on appropriate
themes.
There are three services held each Christmas
Eve. The first which is primarily targeted to
children is at 4:30 p.m. with two others at 7:00
p.m. and 10 p.m. All have communion.
There is one service held at 10:00 a.m. on Christmas Day.
Easter & Holy Week
Services are held Palm Sunday with a procession. On the Tuesday of Holy Week there
is a “Way of the Cross” service. An evening Maundy Thursday service includes the
traditional stripping of the altar. There is one Good Friday service.
Easter Sunday is celebrated with three services at the regular times.
Music
The (paid) music director/organist leads the chancel choir, which rehearses each
Thursday evening. They sing an anthem at the 11:00am service, and present a concert
- 11 -
of choral and organ music each spring. An assistant organist is on hand to play the
chancel organ or piano as needed. On special occasions throughout the year the choir
is joined by a guest instrumentalist, such as a trumpeter. The choir takes a break in
July and August.
Other aspects of worship
A team of lay people assist in the
Prayers of the People, as well as
administering communion.
There is a Biblical Storytellers team, who
present the gospel every couple of months.
This will be offered at 9:30 and 11:00 am in
the coming year.
A Blessing of the Animals service has been
held in the parish hall each October.
MUTUAL SUPPORT & FELLOWSHIP
There are many active groups in the parish, which not only offer support and fellowship
to the members of that group but to the congregation as a whole. Not all are described
here.
For the last two years, a Welcome Back celebration has been held in mid-September,
replacing the annual parish picnic that was previously
held each June. The fall “back to church” party takes
place on the church grounds, either between the 9:30
and 11:00am services or following a combined 10:00am
Sunday worship. In addition to food, there were family
activities, games, and a bouncy castle for the children.
A Newcomers’ Welcoming ministry has been present at
All Saints in various forms over the past many years,
ensuring that those new to the parish are quickly welcomed. Newcomers are welcomed
from the lectern each Sunday in the opening call to attention, the prayers of the people,
and the announcements. Pew cards are available for newcomers to take or fill out for
more information. Periodically we hold sessions for newcomers to All Saints not only to
welcome them, but to introduce them to the liturgy, routine and rites at our church. An
evening get-together, which includes a meal, is a time of welcome and fellowship.
These evenings are planned as the demand and numbers of newcomers warrant
- 12 -
holding the event. Any newcomer who completes a pew card receives a follow-up
phone call.
St. Margaret’s Guild (akin to the
traditional ACW) has a very active
membership and includes women of all
ages. Although engaged in many
different activities, each year they
organize the church bazaar, which is
typically the biggest fundraiser of the
year.
There is also an active men’s group of 51
members, which meets seven times a year for
breakfast and a time of fellowship. There are
guest speakers who present on a wide range
of topics. They also lead an annual drive,
“Staying Warm Together,” which has donated
warm clothing items to seven community
service shelter agencies.
With the addition of a third service and
change of service times, we are still seeking the best way to reboot participation in the
coffee hour/time of fellowship that takes place weekly in between the 9:30am and
11:00am services.
- 13 -
OUTREACH & EVANGELISM
Parish leaders engaged in a 2015 workshop to develop a list of values to be used as
guideposts for being the hands of feet of Jesus in the wider community. Seven Christ-
like values were agreed upon with the following definitions:
Acceptance – favourable reception or belief in someone or something
Compassion – deep awareness of the suffering of others coupled with the intent
to relieve it
Faith – assured and passionate belief in God
Generosity – liberality in giving, or willingness to give
Integrity – being true to our Christian values and principles
Love – a strong desire for the good and wellbeing of another
Respect – an attitude that reflects the dignity of others
Thereafter and keeping these values in mind, All Saints’ convened two congregational
meetings to learn about current community needs that could be addressed through
further congregational and collaborative outreach programming. This meeting was in
collaboration with Community Public Health, Social Services and Mental Health
professionals. As a result, deliberate thought and direction assisted in the outreach
efforts of the parish. The main focus areas are food security, mental health care,
refugee sponsorship and the ongoing TRC process.
Food security
All Saints’ offers a twice weekly Food Bank supported by parishioner volunteers and
donations. In 2018 it served 377 adult & children combined, and as of July 2019,
numbers were trending noticeably higher. A 2019 Vestry motion was passed that
committed parishioners to more intentional support of the food bank and possibilities
for extended outreach in that area.
Annually, All Saints packages and distributes Christmas food hampers and grocery
vouchers to over 200 registered families. Families with children receive gifts, clothing,
and treats through a Christmas Tree Gift Tag program.
Mental health
Since the initial meeting with outside agencies in 2016, parish staff and key volunteers
have received mental health first-aid training, which equips trained parishioners to
ensure newcomers and visitors with special needs have a positive and welcoming
experience in the parish. Participants in the training also examined ways to address
social isolation concerns existing within the area known as Dundas St W. corridor and
assist in developing effective empowerment strategies for low income families.
- 14 -
Refugee sponsorship
In 2016, in partnership with four other Durham Region churches, All Saints’ formed a
group called “ROAD” (Refugee Outreach by Anglicans Durham) and in May 2017
welcomed a three-generation, seven-member Syrian family to Whitby. In 2018, “ROAD”
then became “ROAD2” sponsoring the existing family’s daughter, son-in-law and their
two grandchildren, who arrived in Canada in October of this year.
TRC and Indigenous rights advocacy
For the last two years, All Saints’ supported an Indigenous program named “Northern
Connections”. During Lent 2017 & 2018, the parish collected & shipped 130 individual
“layettes” (boxes of baby and new Mom care items) and shipped 44 cubic ft. of
children’s clothing to the Indigenous Spiritual Ministry Mishamikoweesh.
At Vestry 2019, there was a commitment to continue current “Northern Connections”
program and to support the Pikangikum Water
Project.
In 2016, a land acknowledgement marker was
installed and blessed in a smudging ceremony
at the front of the church building and an eagle
feather in a handcrafted “bed” remains on
display beside the pulpit as a reminder to our
commitment on Indigenous justice issues. The
ongoing TRC process is upheld in our weekly
intercessions.
All Saints’ will continue with community service agencies, brother and sister parishes,
and government and community partners to support and grow our missional
programming. We are confident in knowing that All Saints’ can and will respond to what
God is calling us to do and be, not just for those within our parish family, but also for
those outside our building walls and those who enter in seeking the love of Christ.
CONGREGATIONAL HEALTH
All Saints’ undertook an NCD parish survey in
January 2013 and again in May 2014, and results
showed many strong, healthy indicators of parish life
(with gift-based ministry scoring highest). In 2013, All
Saints’ weakest NCD-identified area was “passionate
spirituality.” The committee launched a series of
personal and group activities to help grow individual
readiness to live out our faith with enthusiasm and
be willing to share that experience with others. All
factors grew between surveys. All Saints improved
its standing in “passionate spirituality” and the new
- 15 -
area of concern was identified as “needs-oriented evangelism.”
Recent outreach and evangelism forays have pushed us as a parish to deepen our
relationship with those who do not yet know Jesus Christ. Timing may be right to
conduct a third NCD survey to gauge the parish’s growth over the past five years.
A FINAL WORD
We thank you for the time you have spent in
prayer and discernment and learning about our
parish life, our ministry objectives, and our
hopes for the future.
We are a Christ-centred community that seeks
to share the message of God’s love and put our
faith into action in our everyday lives. We are
blessed with a long history and a depth of
tradition, and we strive to be fresh, responsive,
and forward-thinking in our relationship with
God and in our care for others. Our future
Incumbent will be called to share those goals
with us.

Appendix 1: Physical Resources
1.1 Condition of the buildings
As part of the Dalton-directed rebuild after the 2009 fire, All Saints’ was restored to
meet current code requirements and upgraded to a wet and dry fire suppression
system, emergency lighting and a state-of-the-art fire detection system. It was
completely rewired with a new breaker panel and a new heating system was
installed. The chancel area was extended and all furnishings in the chancel,
including the choir pews and the organ console are now portable. There is a state-
of-the art high quality sound system, and the organ was upgraded to a refurbished
Casavant with 1,744 pipes and additional digital stops as allowed by limitations of
space.
The worship space (original building) was most recently inspected in 2016. The
inspector’s report stated, “The overall structural condition is satisfactory.
Maintenance has been adequate. No major structural deficiencies were noted.”
The inspector commented that the air conditioning unit in the office wing may need
replacing in relatively near future, and the flat roof over the ground floor meeting
room will likely require attention in a similar time frame. The main boiler was
replaced in 2016 as was the furnace in the office wing. The exterior lighting has
been upgraded, and there is a video monitoring system for entry to the office wing
and security cameras positioned around the church.
1.2 Future property plans
In 2018 the parish received a $202,000 Our Faith Our Hope: Adaptive Reuse grant
from the Diocese of Toronto to undertake specific projects, re-roofing the hall and
office wing, waterproofing the hall basement, (these projects were completed in
2018 and 2019), replacing the hall windows, and constructing a fire exit at the
southwest corner of the hall basement as required by the current fire code (this
project should be complete by early 2020). We would also like to install an
elevator to improve accessibility as funds permit.
There is potential to create a community garden or additional parking in the
grassed square adjacent to the office wing, and this is under consideration.
- 17 -
Appendix 2: Financial Resources
2.1 Sources of income
Rental income decreased in 2018 due to the termination of the lease of a nursery
school using the basement. This was unfortunately necessary due to foundation
repairs and the requirement to install a fire exit. Once both these projects are
completed, there is potential to increase our rental income. The parish obtained a
grant from the Diocese to pay for both these projects.
There is a Preservation Fund which is designated for repairs and improvements to
the building and it currently stands at $87,000. A Capital Campaign was launched
in the spring of 2019 with the goal of raising $150,000 for building improvements to
increase accessibility. First results have been somewhat disappointing with
pledges of only $39,000 to date.
Each year we run a successful Stewardship Campaign and Parish Relay.
Commencing 2017, All Saints’ introduced "Joyful Giving Fall Season Campaign"
under the theme “Making a Difference Together as Faithful Stewards”. The
campaign continues to be an annual undertaking and continues to successfully
yield increased levels of financial contributions from the congregation.

The Town of Whitby is predominately comprised of Caucasian residents, with a
growing number of visible minorities. While there is a great deal of new growth to
Whitby, there is a large population of residents, especially within the parish
boundaries, that have lived in Whitby for over 50 years. Many of these residents
are parishioners of All Saints; however, with all the new growth in Whitby we are
seeing an increase in attendance of new families, many of whom fit into the lower
age demographic. As Whitby becomes more diverse, this is reflected in the
composition of our parish family.
Much of the projected growth for Whitby will come in the expansion of housing
development in the west end of Whitby at Lakeridge Road, which is the Diocesan
boundary for All Saints. This expansion will be between Country Lane and Hwy 412
from Dundas to Taunton and represents a significant growth opportunity for All
Saints. There is presently no Anglican parish in the community of Ajax immediately
to the west.
