A plaque was unveiled in Dufferin Street Presbyterian Church honouring parishioners who gave their lives in the First World War. The church at 1183 Dufferin Avenue closed in 1993 and the congregation merged with Dovercourt-St. Paul's Presbyterian Church to form a new St. Paul's Presbyterian Church at Dovercourt Road. This church closed in 2005 and the plaque was moved to Igreja Presbiteriana de Lingua.

Chalmers Presbyterian Church dedicated this memorial plaque to those from its Sunday School who died because of their service in the First World War. This wooden plaque takes the form of a shield and has thirty maple leaves each with the name of a man who died. Plaques like this were part of the Peace Thank-offering and Forward Movement with which the Presbyterian Church marked the end of the war.

The church sanctuary at 1266 Dundas Street W was destroyed by fire in 1945 and was rebuilt. In 1978, the congregation merged with St. Paul's Dovercourt Presbyterian Church and the church on Dundas Street was demolished in the 1980s.

It is not known when the Second World War Roll of Honor was unveiled in Dentonia Park United Church. Up until 2010, the church was located at 107 Dawes Road, Toronto, Ontario. The honour roll is now found in the sanctuary of Hope United Church. 

MacPherson United Church was established in 1925 and was renamed Dentonia Park United Church in 1929. The congregation sold its building in 2010 and it was torn down and replaced by housing. In 2011, the congregation began worshipping as an independent congregation in the Hope United Church building.

In the same service, a memorial window and plaque were dedicated to honour those from the Metropolitan Methodist Church congregation who died during the Great War.

Elm Street Methodist Church was founded in 1853. It closed in 1922 and the congregation amalgamated with Metropolitan Methodist Church.
