Timothy Eaton Memorial Church, in Toronto, Ontario, was erected at 230 St. Clair Avenue West in 1914 as a Methodist congregation, and named for department store founder Timothy Eaton.

It is one of two United Church congregations in the area and on St. Clair, the other being Deer Park United Church, formerly Presbyterian. It is a member of the Churches on the Hill.

This congregation has been known for its preaching ministry and its music, and has maintained radio, and later internet, broadcasts of its services. It features a live Nativity pageant each Christmas Eve.

Famed Air Force Ace Billy Bishop was married in the church.

The present Senior Minister is the Rev. Dr. Andrew Stirling.
