In 1999, the AMJ purchased the building from Trinity Club House. Much of the exterior of the building remained unchanged. The interior was transformed into a place of worship. This building houses separate prayer halls differentiated by gender, a large Islamic library, a homeopathic clinic, a large cafeteria and commercial kitchen and several offices along with a full size basketball court as well as volleyball net on the exterior. This building has also served as the Jamia Ahmadiyya, or missionary training college, for North America from 2003 - 2010.[1] Jamia Ahmadiyya has been located in Innisfil since 2011.
