SUMMARY:Giving Tuesday Street Health Toiletries Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Giving Tuesday is a global movement unleashing the power of “radical generosity”. It came to Canada in 2013 as a simple idea: designate a day – November 28 – that encourages people to do good. If you have any unopened travel-sized toiletries or personal hygiene products\, Street Health\, one of our Embrace Action partner organizations\, would love to use them in their work on Indigenous Harm Reduction in Toronto this winter. Simply drop the donated items from 10:00 to10:30am before worship\, in the Nook (SE sanctuary entrance).

SUMMARY:CMHA Education Session on Anxiety
DESCRIPTION:Stay with us after worship service on Sunday\, March 23\, for a workshop facilitated by Christina Gallo of CMHA (Canadian Mental Health Association) Toronto. We will provide a light lunch during coffee hour that will include sandwiches and crudité to take to your seats to enjoy as we transition from worship to our guest speaker. \nFairlawners\, like many in our community\, are feeling particular anxiety about social justice issues close to our hearts and minds: poverty\, climate change\, 2SLGBTQIA+ rights\, and the list goes on. Christina will share with us what anxiety is; the difference between the normal anxiety we feel vs. medical/clinical anxiety; how to develop empathy to help understand anxiety in others; and how we can best support our kids\, families\, communities and ourselves. There will also be a Q&A period. \n
