Getting to All Saints Church

The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” And let him who hears say, “Come.” And let him who is thirsty come, let him who desires take the water of life without price.’ ~ Revelation 22:17

All Saints of Alaska Orthodox Church meets at  5363 Hamsterly Road, off Pat Bay Highway across from Elk Lake, just a 10-minute drive north of Victoria.

By Car:

Coming (north) from Victoria, 10 minutes from the city limits:

Highway 17A North starts as Blanshard Street in Victoria. Drive north, past the city limits, past the exit to Royal Oak, until Elk Lake is coming up on your left. Right after the Cordova Bay Road intersection is a sign for the truck weigh scales ahead. Turn in at the weigh scales, and you will see the church directly ahead. There is parking both at the front and at the rear of the church.

Coming (south) from Sidney or the ferries, 15 minutes on the highway:

Proceed through the Sayward Road intersection and turn left at the next intersection onto Cordova Bay Road, then make a u-turn to get back on to the highway, going north, and proceed right at the weigh scales, as above.

By Public Transit:

The Sunday transit schedules will get you to the church either at 9:00 am, or 10:00 am. See BC Transit’s website for maps and schedules. You will need to catch the northward #70 or #71 at the Royal Oak Exchange, and ask the bus driver to let you off across from the Shell gas station, at Sayward Road. It is a 7-minute walk south to the church. On the return trip, the bus stop is in front of the Shell gas station.
