History
In
the late 1870's, a small group of Christians wanted to provide
a Sunday school in the Dovercourt and Queen area in order
to serve the growing number of children and adults in the
community. The group would grow and establish Dovercourt Road
Baptist Church in 1879. The first building was located at
the corner of Dovercourt and Argyle, and still stands today.
In
1974, under the Dovercourt Baptist Foundation, a new church
building (now called Dovercourt Baptist Church) and a seniors'
residence (New Horizons Tower) were officially opened. Today,
the Tower and the Church share the same building at the busy
crossroads of Bloor and Dufferin.
