A photo tour of some of the more architecturally interesting churches on the North Shore The North Shore offers sanctuary to a wide variety of religious persuasions.

The buildings they worship in range dramatically in architectural styles but all strive for the same goal of welcoming both new and returning visitors. Some of our oldest churches, like St. Andrew's, are into their second century and others have survived but now provide a space for a different type of gathering. Anne MacDonald Hall at Presentation House was the original St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church, and Deep Cove United Church has found new life as My Little Daycare. Their exteriors have become local landmarks and reflect architectural styles from the era they were built. Presented here are a selection of visually noteworthy features of several churches.
