Woodland Beach is located in Tiny Township, Ontario, on the Georgian Bay shoreline east of Collingwood. It has traditionally been a cottage community. The church continues to minister seasonally from the Victoria Day holiday weekend in May through to the Thanksgiving weekend in October with individual services on Easter Sunday and Christmas Eve. We welcome all Christian believers to join us for Sunday services at 10:30 a.m.
We have new content with every update.
As of March 6th
We continue to pray for healing, comfort, & Grace for Len Langman, Mike Doran, & Malcolm & Liz’s family.

As hints of spring tantalize us with wisps of periodic warmer temperatures and winter won’t easily give up its hold we are moving ahead with plans for the opening of the 2026 Woodland Beach Community Church season on Sunday May 17. This is a very special year for our church both historically and spiritually as we will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding in 1926. Specific details will be available in April with the focus of the celebration being on the weekend of July 4th when we will host an Open House for the community with a special service on the Sunday morning at the regular 10:30 time.
This month as we all approach the holy days in remembrance of the passion and death of Jesus our Saviour, and we begin to anticipate the glorious celebration of Easter on April 5th @ 9am, we keep you in our prayers and encourage you to find some quiet time to centre yourself on the factual history, on the biblical recordings, on the unity of the Faith we share with millions of Christians throughout our world, on ways each of us can better model Jesus in our own circles of contacts, on contributing counter-balances to the intrusions of evil we are witnessing, and yes, on our personal prayer, almsgiving, and holy thanksgiving.
May this 100th season inspire more faithful souls in our community to join us in invigorating the ministry of the Woodland Beach Church into the next century. Please consider stepping forward to be helpful in any way you can.

In the summer of 1920 the Aldridges, along with 18 members of the girls choir and a cook from Silverthorne Methodist Church in Toronto where Rev. Aldrige was pastor, camped in this area using two World-War-I army tents.
Rev. Aldridge initiated the present subdivision by approaching Jonathan Tripp, a farmer whose land ran to the water. They struck a deal for the land and Rev. Aldridge’s wife “Nellie” gave the name “Woodland Beach.”
THIS INAUGURATED THE ACTUAL PHYSICAL STARTING OF WOODLAND BEACH AS A TOURIST SUBDIVISION.
The following summer the first 3 cottages in Woodland were constructed, Rev. Aldridge s, Rev. Bryce’s. and the Carters’. Historical records indicate that in subsequent years services were held in local homes as the community expanded.
The church congregation was officially formed in 1926 but the church building wasn’t completed and first used until July 1929.
See the book ‘Footprints in the Sand‘ – Woodland Beach Memories page 22 and following for other details.
