Pastoral Visitation Team Meeting Our pastoral visitation ministry provides support and compassion for those who may occasionally experience difficulty in their lives and supports our senior members when they can no longer regularly attend church. We send cards and flowers and keep them connected to Fairlawn through phone calls and personal visits.

The Prayer Shawl Ministry knitters meet monthly offsite from September to June to knit and chat. Prayer shawls are offered to Fairlawn members, family and friends in need of support and comfort, or to celebrate a special occasion. The knitters work on their own time on these cozy, warm shawls that serve as a tangible reminder that we are not alone.

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. Fairlawners, 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.
