St. Mary The Virgin History

"The magnificent story of The Church of St. Mary the Virgin begins in the early 1850's when it was recognized that the Cathedral was overcrowded. Also, it was felt that the large number of parishioners on the Southside were inconveniently remote from their church and clergy. Hence, the idea of a sister church to the Cathedral loomed as an attractive idea." (Quoted from the 100th Anniversary Book.)

On June 24, 1859, St. John the Baptist's Day, the first St. Mary's Church was consecrated by Bishop Feild. The new Church of St. Mary the Virgin was opened on December 23, 1962 and consecrated on October 30, 1966. By the 1950's the old St. Mary's Church was seen to be too small and there was no more space in which to expand. A new site was procured in the quiet area of Craigmillar Avenure. On the morning of Sunday, June 21, 1959 the congregation paraded from the old church to the site of the new one where the Bishop of Newfoundland, The Rt. Rev. J.A. Meaden broke the ground for the new Church.

We have a daughter congregation at St. Peter's, Shea Heights. At Shea Heights Anglicans had gathered for Sunday School and occasional worship since the early 1960's. In 1967 Bishop Seaborn named it St. Peter on The Rock. For a few years, servces, Sunday School and group activities were held in a one room school obtained from The United Church. A fire in 1970 resulted in some damage and a decision to doscontinue services at Shea heights. In 1966 a Church was built on Learning Road, Shea Heights. Worship Services, Sunday School and social activities achieves a greater degree of stability.
