About Us/Church History

PictureWelcome to your Spiritual home!
Our Church Story - How We Began
Nestled in the heart of the Crown Point Community, East Hamilton Spiritual Church has resided for over 107 years.
Our commitment to establish a permanent home for EHSC began when a devoted group of Spiritualists came together with the desire to create a space they could call their own. Land on Balmoral St. N. was purchased and the original church was built in 1921.
​The church would become the Spiritual hub for Spiritualists far and wide, travelling from across Canada, the U.S.A. and the U.K.

In 1973, the Balmoral St. church property was sold to the city for redevelopment and in 1974, EHSC relocated to their current home of 83 Ottawa St. N., a picturesque, cozy dwelling, steps away from the original Tim Hortons & within walking distance of many unique shops and restaurants in the Ottawa St. shopping district.
Here we are, over 107 years later, continuing to be the Spiritual haven for the Spiritual community at large, welcoming and embracing all, honoring our Mission 
Statement to teach and proclaim the Science, Philosophy and Religion of Spiritualism.

​Our Mission Statement

The mission of the East Hamilton Spiritual Church is to teach and proclaim the Science, Philosophy and Religion of Spiritualism.
​
  • "Spiritualism Is a Science" - because it investigates, analyzes and classifies facts and manifestations demonstrated from the spirit side of life.
 
  • "Spiritualism Is a Philosophy" ​- because it studies the laws of nature both on the seen and unseen sides of life and bases its conclusions upon present observed facts. It accepts statements of observed facts of past ages and conclusions drawn therefrom, when sustained by reason and by results of observed facts of the present day.
 
  • "Spiritualism Is a Religion" - because it strives to understand and to comply with the Physical, Mental and Spiritual Laws of Nature, "which are the Laws of God".
