The Church of St. Andrew and St. Paul welcomes people of all backgrounds and identities to find a spiritual home within our community. Each August, we host a variety of Pride events, which typically include a communal dinner, a reflective service in our Quiet Garden, and a worship service in our sanctuary. As a congregation, we also participate in the Montreal Pride Parade, either by marching together or attending in support.

To stay connected with inclusive activities throughout the year, we invite you to follow our Young Adult Ministry's (YAM) page on the Church Center app. YAM regularly organizes fun, welcoming events open to everyone.

We also encourage you to explore The Presbyterian Church in Canada’s Confession to God and LGBTQI People along with their Gender, Sexuality & LGBTQI2+ Inclusion webpage. Additionally, the Government of Canada offers a helpful glossary for terminology and common acronyms related to 2SLGBTQIA+ communities for those seeking to learn more.
