Parish Background
The Church began as a mission to Queens University students, in the home of the Zion family. On growing, it also met in a chapel at the University. Later, it became a house-church, then moved to a store-front in a strip-mall, to the basement of their historic Church in the Cemetery where the first Prime Minister of Canada is buried. By God’s Grace and Mercy on June 15, 2022, the parish of St. Gregory of Nyssa in Kingston purchased the historic red brick church at 965 Sydenham Road, along with its 3 acre cemetery, one of the oldest in Ontario, where the first English settlers of the Province are buried. The Parish held its first Divine Liturgy on June 26, 2022.
