SUMMARY:Statutory Holiday – Closed
DESCRIPTION:Wishing all a joyful and safe Victoria Day long weekend as we celebrate the unofficial start of summer with family and friends.\n\nThe United Church of Canada observes the Victoria Day statutory holiday established in 1901 to honor Queen Victoria\, considered the “Mother of Confederation”. The Church follows the national calendar recognizing this day to celebrate Canada’s historical roots and the reigning monarch’s official birthday. \n\nKey Reasons for Observation:\n\n\nHonouring Confederation: Queen Victoria reigned during Canadian Confederation in 1867 and selected Ottawa as the national capital.\nMonarch’s Birthday: It serves as the official celebration of the sovereign’s birthday in Canada\, a tradition continuing since 1845.\nNational Statutory Holiday: As a legal holiday across Canada\, it is standard for institutions\, including faith-based organizations\, to observe the day.\nCultural Tradition: It marks the unofficial start of summer in Canada\, functioning as a cultural holiday more than a religious one.

SUMMARY:Moose Hide Campaign Day National Rally
DESCRIPTION:Moose Hide Campaign Day National Rally ~ Thursday\, May 14 11:00am \nThe United Church of Canada issued the following invitation to its members and the faith communities to which they belong. \n\nAs we approach May\, The United Church of Canada calls on members\, friends\, and communities of faith to take a clear stance against racism and for justice. We are inviting our Ontario regions to lead the way by joining us in person for the Moose Hide Campaign Day National Rally at Queen’s Park in Toronto on Thursday\, May 14. \nThe Moose Hide Campaign is more than a day; it is a mobilization against the ongoing national crisis of violence facing Indigenous women\, girls\, and 2SLGBTQIA+ people. Indigenous women\, who make up just 5 percent of the female population\, are disproportionately affected by gender-based violence in Canada. These are not just statistics. This is a reality we cannot ignore. \nJoin us at Queen’s Park. If you are in Southern Ontario\, we encourage your community of faith to join us on the grounds of the Ontario Legislature from 12:00pm to 1:30pm for the national rally. The United Church of Canada contingent will be meeting at the southeast corner of the park\, near Queen’s Park Crescent East and Wellesley Street West at 11:45am. \n\nHide pins\, which you can wear as often as you want\, to show your concern and solidarity\, are available from Nigel on Sunday\, May 10 at our worship service. There is no cost for these pins. As the Campaign organizers say these pins are ‘medicine’\, in the traditional understanding of Canada’s Indigenous people. They are given\, not bought\, for all medicine is a gift from Creator. Feel free though to make a donation to The Moose Hide Campaign by way of acknowledging the medicine gift. \nJean and Nigel invite you to meet them at the North East (down escalator) entrance to the Lawrence Subway Station at 11:00am journeying to join other United Church folk to take a clear stance against racism and for justice. \nLearn more about the Moose Hide Campaign.

SUMMARY:Senior's Ministry ~ Discussion Series
DESCRIPTION:On-site discussion series for seniors\, designed to bring people together in person for meaningful conversation\, laughter\, and learning. These gatherings will continue the spirit of the Tuesday Lunch Crowd—welcoming\, inclusive\, and engaging—while creating new opportunities to connect face-to-face. \nTopics will be interesting\, accessible\, and fun\, shaped around shared experiences\, curiosity\, and community. Whether you’re a longtime participant or new to the group\, you’ll be warmly welcomed. \nTopics and Guest Speakers to be confirmed. \nTuesday\, March 10 2:00pm – 4:00pm  \nActor\, Director and Teacher Scot Denton reflect on his question: “Acting? Why would you want to do that?”.  Scot will share the best times and misadventures during his career of trying to interpret other peoples’ stories. \nTuesday\, April 14 2:00pm – 4:00pm \nGary Schlee\, for more than a decade\, shared local history stories in Fairlawn’s Community Life newspaper. He will takes us on a virtual tour that explores present-day parts of the ‘hood’ and what was there in earlier times. Together\, we will “flash back” to when the neighbourhood had a toll gate\, Loblaws was on the west side of Yonge\, Melrose boasted an impressive pillared entranceway\, there was a bridge alongside Blessed Sacrament School\, and Fairlawn held services in a barroom. \nWednesday\, April 29 2:00pm – 4:00pm \nOur guest speaker\, Ebrahim Alia\, Program Coordinator Rainbow Seniors at Lansing United\, is a technology specialist. He has a background in digital media\, technology training\, and delivers workshops and presentations on technology\, social media\, and digital tools\, helping people understand technology in a simple and practical way. Join us and learn how Al works and how to turn your ideas into pictures. No technical skills are needed. \nTuesday\, May 5 2:00pm – 4:00pm \nJoin resident author\, Gord Pitts and learn from his book showing how the past can inform our current reality. Scary Harry\, the Cheesemaker Assassin. It was a fractious time of vast inequity and sharply polarized views\, sparking an explosion of political violence in the U.S. But It was 1906\, not 2026. Into this cauldron of class warfare stepped Harry Orchard — paid assassin and a former cheesemaker from the Ontario countryside east of Toronto. What are the lessons from his murderous rampage in an earlier Gilded Age? Gord Pitts discusses his new book.
