Special Music
You’re Invited to Special Music at Fairlawn Avenue United Church. Sunday, March 1, 2026 at 10:30am, the Senior Choir of Fairlawn Avenue with Eleanor Daley, Director of Music present Requiem by John Rutter with Chamber Orchestra. John Rutter’s Requiem is a tender and luminous choral work that speaks gently of loss, hope, and peace. Blending ancient Latin texts with English psalms, its flowing melodies and warm harmonies offer comfort and quiet beauty. Rather than mourning alone, this Requiem invites listeners into a space of rest, remembrance, and healing.
Coffee Hour
Coffee Hour after Sunday worship – Experience Belonging Ministry Every Sunday following worship service, coffee, tea and cookies are served in the sanctuary. Coffee hour provides an important opportunity for people to connect with one another, welcome guests and feel part of Fairlawn. Each week, a two-person team will arrive at 10:00am to set up, attend the service and finish cleaning up by 12:30pm. Easy-to-follow instructions are posted in the kitchen.
