All Saints’ Anglican Church has officially begun the countdown to its 150th anniversary, unveiling a series of celebratory events and initiatives set to take place throughout 2025.
The church is planning an array of festivities that aim to honour its long history while looking toward a vibrant future.
A special launch event was held on Sunday, in the Upper Parish Hall, where community members gathered for fellowship, refreshments, and musical entertainment provided by All Saints’ Musical Director, Okubadejo. The event featured remarks from key community figures, including Mayor Jeff Leal and former Mayor Sylvia Sutherland, both of whom have deep ties to the Peterborough area.
“Our 150th anniversary is a momentous occasion, not only for All Saints’ but for the entire Peterborough community,” said Pastor Samantha Caravan. “We have a rich legacy, and we’re looking forward to celebrating it with our friends, neighbours, and partners while also raising funds to ensure our future impact.”
As part of the celebration, the church has lined up several key events for 2025, including a gala dinner, a golf tournament, children’s activities, and a variety of musical and community performances. In addition, All Saints’ is launching a fundraising campaign, aiming to raise $150,000 in honour of its 150 years. The funds will support ongoing efforts in the areas of food security and programming for children, youth, and families.
