FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES
Each year, Carlow United Church holds several community events that bring the community together and raise funds for the operation of the church and those in need in our immediate community of Carlow / Mayo and the Bancroft area. These events are the WALK-A-THON and TURKEY AND HAM DINNER.
Walk-A-Thon

THANKS and GOD bless all who contributed to the amazing success of our 2021 Walk-A-Thon.

The 2022 Walk-A-Thon is tentatively scheduled for September 11, 2022.
The Walk-A-Thon is held immediately following the Sunday Service. It has been our tradition to serve a Pot Luck supper following the walk for all walkers, donors and community members. Hopefully, Covid-19 restrictions will have been relaxed enough that we can carry on with our tradition Pot Luck supper. Stay tuned for more information as we get closer to the date.

ANNIVERSARY SERVICE
11:30 AM Sunday, July 19, 2020
The rich history of Carlow United Church is celebrated each year around this time. 2020 marked the 145th Anniversary of Carlow United Church. For more details on this rich heritage, see the HISTORY page of this website.
Inspite of COVID-19 and considering the restrictions of holding this service indoors, tents were set up outside, masks were worn and chairs spaced for the appropriate distancing. We were honoured to have Rev. Erin Oxford of the Dale Ministry in Toronto as our guest speaker for the second year in a row. Music was provided by the Hughey Band and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
In 2020, Carlow United Church celebrated 145 years of spreading Gods word in the community. Following are some photos from that celebration.
