Who we are
The Parish of Chelsea-Lascelles-Wakefield was formed in 1990 and is a part of the Anglican Diocese of Ottawa in the Anglican Church of Canada. We are a welcoming Christian community, nurturing life's balance in God's changing world.
St Mary Magdalene, Chelsea had been part of the Parish of Hull with sister congregations at St George’s, Gatineau and St James, Hull. Chelsea was a growing municipality and St Mary Magdalene had enjoyed the fruits of this growth. At a Vestry meeting in September 2000, the congregation voted to expand its building in order to enhance its mission within the community.
Church of the Good Shepherd, Wakefield and Holy Trinity, Lascelles had been sister congregations since their inceptions in the 1860’s. In January of 2000; however, it was the will of these congregations to deepen their shared life and at successive Vestry meetings they voted to amalgamate into one congregation.
Church of the Good Shepherd now serves as the sponsoring Church of the congregation and holds services every Sunday morning. Holy Trinity is now a Chapel and continues to flourish as a place for special services of worship such as Evensong in the summer, the Feast of St Francis, and Christmas Eve Easter morning celebrations. What follows is a historical sketch of each of the congregations that have come to form the Parish of Chelsea-Lascelles-Wakefield.

5 Pritchard Road
Taizé is an ecumenical monastic order based in Burgundy, France. It originated in the late 1920's and now comprises more than a hundred members, brothers from Catholic and Protestant traditions, originating from about thirty countries across the world. Taizé is a place of pilgrimage. It especially attracts young adults. In Taizé worship, there is no preaching, no teaching, no talk of sin or repentance or forgiveness. There is just this elegantly simple service: short chants, often in Latin, repeated over and over in the dark. Plus some short Scripture readings or psalms. And silence, at least 8 or 10 minutes, sometimes more. In 45 minutes, it's over. One Taizé brother has said: 'It is a time to rest in God, to let the words listened to and sung penetrate one's being'.
Frequency to be determined - see the calendar for details

St Mary Magdalene History
Services in Chelsea, as an outstation of Hull, began in the 1830’s in settlers’ homes. By 1842, services were being held in the Chelsea schoolhouse. In 1875, the building of St. Mary Magdalene Church, Chelsea was begun. The church was dedicated two years later. In the fall of 1943, the first St. Mary Magdalene Church was secularized and the building demolished. The small congregation continued with worship services held in the schoolhouse. From 1950-1956, the growing congregation of St. Mary Magdalene met in the United Church in Chelsea. New land was acquired and, in 1957, the cornerstone for the new church was laid by Bishop John H. Dixon of Montreal. On December 7, 1966 the second St. Mary Magdalene, Chelsea was consecrated

Open our ears to hear
Blessed Lord, open our ears to hear what Thou speakest and our eyes to see as Thou seest. Give us hearts to beat in sympathy with Thine at the sight of every little child; and above all, our Lord, to understand and experience how surely and how blessedly Thou fulfilest Thy promise, "Whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me."
