    OBITUARY: Rev. Dayfoot passes away in To
    Location: Toronto
    Rev. Dayfoot was one of the last of the line of Canadaian missionaries to arrive on Naparima Hill, serving from 1952 to 1974, almost to the closure of the mission.

    this included a period as principal of the Theological College.

    =========================================

    Bloor Street United Church 300 Bloor Street West (at Huron), Toronto www.bloorstreetunited.org / P: 416-924-7439 Rev. Arthur Charles Dayfoot passed away peacefully at home in Toronto on Monday, November 22, 2010. Art was born in 1915 in Guelph, Ontario and grew up in Georgetown. He attended Emmanuel College from 1940-43, during which time he was a founding member of the Campus Co-op. He left to serve the Church of Christ in China, under the Board of World Mission of the United Church of Canada, getting stuck en route both in South Africa and India because of WWII.

    He worked in China from 1945-50, first attending language school and then being posted to Fowling. While in China, he met and married Bessie Julien, who had come to China under the Women’s Missionary Society. The first of their five children was born in China.

    When Art and Bessie had to leave China due to the Revolution, they went to England for a year, where Art worked on his Th.M. at Cambridge. He was then posted to Trinidad, serving the Presbyterian Church of Trinidad and Grenada from 1952-74.

    From 1961-70 he was the principal of St. Andrew’s Theological College in San Fernando. After retiring from the mission field, Art was the minister at Regent Park United Church (1975-77) and Heritage York Pastoral Charge (1977-81). During retirement he worked as pulpit supply throughout the Brampton area.

    After many years of work, he completed his ThD in 1982 from Emmanuel College and the Toronto School of Theology. In 1999, he published his doctoral thesis as “The Shaping of the West Indian Church 1492-1962” and in 2004 published “Bibliography of West Indian Church History”. The memorial service will be held at Bloor Street United Church, 300 Bloor St. W., at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 15, 2011.
