Today
In addition to worship services, the church sponsors a number of outreach programs for nearby residents. An Ontario Heritage Trust marker at the church notes its importance in the city's history. An additional plaque was installed March 28, 1982, by the Archdiocese of Toronto at the rectory. It was constructed north of the church in 1845 and expanded in 1852, 1891 and again in the early twentieth century. Between 1852 and 1856, the rectory was home to St. Michael's College until it moved to its present location near the University of Toronto.
