St. Paul's, Bloor Street
St. Paul's Bloor Street, is a large church of the Anglican Church of Canada in the Diocese of Toronto.
Located in downtown Toronto near the denomination's national headquarters, the parish, along with Little Trinity Anglican Church, is one of historical flagship low church parishes of the diocese, and is one of the few remaining Anglican churches in Toronto where Morning Prayer is the principal service twice a month (three times in months with five Sundays), rather than the more typical weekly Parish Communion. The first St. Paul's church opened on June 12, 1842. The second St Paul's church was constructed in 1860; the current main church in 1913. The two buildings, as well as the parish hall (Cody Hall) are now joined together by an Atrium after the Nehemiah Project renovation and building project.
The vision of St. Paul's Bloor Street is: "By the power and grace of Jesus Christ, we seek to be a transformative community for the city." St. Paul's has extensive outreach, youth, children's and adult programming, and offers Christianity 101 courses for those exploring Christianity. Worship services include a quiet communion service at 8:15 AM, an informal service named "The Bridge" at 9:30 AM and an 11:00 AM traditional service.

Toronto—St. Paul's
Toronto—St. Paul's is a federal electoral district in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the Canadian House of Commons since 1935. Its current MP is Carolyn Bennett. Prior to the 2015 election, the riding was known as St. Paul's.
The small but densely populated riding covers the area to the north of Downtown Toronto. In the past, it had been considered a bellwether riding, having been represented by only three opposition MPs. However, like most Toronto-based ridings, the Liberals have dominated recent elections. Since the Liberals won all but one seat in Ontario in their 1993 landslide, they have won St. Paul's by 15,000 votes or more.

St Paul's dean steps down over protests
The occupation of London's St Paul's Cathedral by anti-capitalist protesters has lead to another high-profile resignation. Graeme Knowles, the dean of the cathedral, said the continuing controversy was behind his decision to stand down. His resignation follows that last week of Giles Fraser, a senior priest who had welcomed the anti-capitalist demonstrators to camp outside the landmark. Fraser had said he resigned because he feared moves to evict the protesters could end in violence. Emma Hayward reports from St Paul's.

The Dean of St Paul's resigned as the anti-capitalist protest outside the cathedral claimed its second victim.
The Right Rev Graeme Knowles's resignation follows that of Canon Chancellor of St Paul's Giles Fraser, who had stood up for the protesters.
He said: "The past fortnight has been a testing time for the chapter and for me personally.
"It has become increasingly clear to me that, as criticism of the cathedral has mounted in the press, media and in public opinion, my position as dean of St Paul's was becoming untenable.
"In order to give the opportunity for a fresh approach to the complex and vital questions facing St Paul's, I have thought it best to stand down as dean, to allow new leadership to be exercised.
"I do this with great sadness, but I now believe that I am no longer the right person to lead the chapter of this great cathedral."
The dean made the initial announcement that the cathedral had closed its doors for the first time since the Second World War.
And as the protesters' controversial presence continued, he asked them to move on, citing health and safety dangers.
His stance was the opposite of the former canon chancellor's.
Mr Knowles said it was not an easy decision to resign and he had enjoyed being dean.
But the protesters' camp has caused a great deal of strain, he said.
He thanked his former colleagues and added: "I would also wish to place on record my thanks to all the staff of the cathedral, both paid and volunteers, who work tirelessly, day by day, to ensure that this amazing place is maintained, and that it is indeed cherished as a place of worship and pilgrimage.
"In recent days, since the arrival of the protesters' camp outside the cathedral, we have all been put under a great deal of strain and have faced what would appear to be some insurmountable issues.
"I hope and pray that under new leadership these issues might continue to be addressed and that there might be a swift and peaceful resolution."
His departure is the second key loss at the cathedral, but part-time chaplain Fraser Dyer also resigned last week, for similar concerns as the canon chancellor.

Mr Knowles said it was not an easy decision to resign and he had enjoyed being dean.
But the protesters' camp has caused a great deal of strain, he said.
He thanked his former colleagues and added: "I would also wish to place on record my thanks to all the staff of the cathedral, both paid and volunteers, who work tirelessly, day by day, to ensure that this amazing place is maintained, and that it is indeed cherished as a place of worship and pilgrimage.
"In recent days, since the arrival of the protesters' camp outside the cathedral, we have all been put under a great deal of strain and have faced what would appear to be some insurmountable issues.
"I hope and pray that under new leadership these issues might continue to be addressed and that there might be a swift and peaceful resolution."
His departure is the second key loss at the cathedral, but part-time chaplain Fraser Dyer also resigned last week, for similar concerns as the canon chancellor.

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — One of the Lowcountry's oldest churches is getting a much overdue repair job.
Some of the needed repairs date back centuries.
"It was founded in 1809 as a congregation and the building was begun in 1811 and finished in 1816," said Peet Dickinson, the dean and rector of Cathedral Church of St. Luke and St. Paul.
The long-standing structure of faith has witnessed its share of history.

St. Paul
by: The RembrandtsSt. Paul in the winter-Kids are crying for their dinner
Quick smoke and a drink, then it's time for bed
He said, ";Why do you always seem so down?
Is something lost that can't be found?";
You wait, hesitate, and tell him you're okay
But it's a lie-You can't look him in the eye
'Cause he won't ever understand you
You want to believe, that things will change
It worries your heart, oh to feel this strange
Bu you can't stop the world-No, from spinning around
You'll never stop the rain from falling down, down, down
Down, down, down
It's colder than I remember, at this time last December
The win was blowin' and, the skies are always grey
You said someday you're gonna leave that man...realize all that we've planned
Start all over again, under the southern sun
But it's a lie-You can't look me in the eye
Knowin' I won't understand you
Yeh I want to believe, oh that things will change
And it worries my heart, yeh to feel this strange
But I can't stop the world-No, from spinning around
You'll never stop the rain from falling down, down, down
I hope that you understand-You're always welcome at my door
And I hope you understand, that I";m not hoping anymore...hoping anymore
Yeh you want to believe, oh that things will change
And it worries your heart, mmm to feel this strange
But you can't stop the world-No, from spinning around
You'll never stop the rain from fallin' down, down, down
Down, down, down
