Church on Sunday...Christian Baptist Church,Newmarket,Ontario



Today we visit another church in Ontario Canada. This time in the town of Newmarket to the north of the city of Toronto. The Christian Baptist Church has had a presence here since 1822,the church we see today is the third church on the site,built in 1874 in a Gothic revival style,complete with fake buttresses.

 
The tower, with its large polygonal steeple, is centred in its Latin cross plan 
Its exterior was originally brickwork but covered in stucco,circa 1900.

 

It has a lovely interior with ornate roof trusses.


Above the main entrance is this fresco.


 

 Stained glass features on every wall of the church in a variety of window designs.


 


The church describes itself as "every bride's dream! A long isle and sloped sanctuary gives everyone a great view. With seating for over 200 people"...would have to agree that it would be a lovely place to get married.
