Glen Ayr is located in the residential area known as the Glen Andrew Community. The church opened in 1960 when the area was newly built and many of the young families came and made Glen Ayr a vibrant part of the community. We are located directly south of the Scarborough Town Centre, just 3 blocks east of Brimley Rd. at the second set of lights south of Ellesmere Rd.
