The Fall schedule can be found here.
Prayers of the People Writers - A new schedule is being created to cover the next few months and we are looking for volunteers to help create them. With enough people, we are hoping for a commitment of approximately once every 8-10 weeks. Training will be provided by the Diocese. Please contact Fr Felix if you can help out.
A Special Invitation - As a spread-out parish, these upcoming fall events are a wonderful opportunity for all our churches to come together, support one another, and strengthen the connections that unite us. Let’s show our collective support across the parish and make each of these gatherings a true reflection of our Parish of LOV community! Whether you are coming for a supper, staying for the fellowship, or lending a helping hand, your presence makes a difference. Let’s join hands across all our congregations to celebrate, share good food, and bring our entire parish family closer together. See the complete list below.

Helping Hands
Centre 440 Hawkesbury - Providing Lunch / Creating Community - Looking for an opportunity to give back? This may be it! Volunteering at Centre 440 isn't just about helping out - its sharing laughs, meeting incredible people and making a real, tangible difference right here in our community! A few hours a month or every couple of months - on a Wednesday morning helping in the kitchen to prepare the meal - on a Thursday lunchtime to help serve lunch - we would love to have you on our Volunteer Team! If you are interested in adding your name to our Volunteer list, or if you have any questions, we would be delighted to hear from you! centre440hawkesbury@gmail.com
A huge THANK YOU to Jean-Pierre Mayer and the Hawkesbury Auto Club for their wonderful generosity and support of Centre 440!
Milk Bag Collection for Mats for the Homeless - A reminder to please save and bring in your clean, dry outer milk bags! These bags are a wonderful help for Anne Kirby and her team at All Saints Anglican Church, who weave them into durable, moisture-resistant sleeping mats and sitting mats for people experiencing homelessness. It takes hundreds of milk bags to make a single mat, so every donation truly makes a difference!
Centre 105, Cornwall - Plastic Containers Collection - Please remember to save and bring in your clean, empty plastic food containers with lids! We collect these to donate to Centre 105 in Cornwall, where they are used to package hot meals for community members in need.
St. John's Food basket is empty! - Please remember to bring something to fill it. The local FOODBANK still needs our help.
