Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: Isaiah 29:13
On December 23, 1964, representatives of the Anglican, Baptist, Greek Orthodox, Lutheran, Presbyterian and Roman Catholic churches in Canada announced an agreement to share a pavilion at the Expo '67 world's fair in Montreal. The United Church and Ukrainian Greek Orthodox Church later joined the project.
