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 our 2020 Walk-A-Thon in spite of the fact that it had been delayed due to COVID-19.

Sunday, September 27, 2020
The Walk-A-Thon will be held on Sunday, September 27, 2020 immediately following the Sunday Service. It has been our tradition to service a Pot Luck supper following the walk for all walkers, donors and community members. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 restrictions, there will be no Pot Luck supper.

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. Rev. Lynn led the service and 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.

THANKSGIVING SERVICE
To Be Determined
Each year our sanctuary gets a make over with Thanksgiving decorations. We are so blessed to live in an area where the fall colours are nothing short of magnificent and a testimony to the love of our creator. |

REMEMBRANCE DAY SERVICES
1:00 PM, Wednesday, November 11, 2020
Each year on Remembrance Day (November 11th), a service is conducted at the Carlow / Mayo Township Cenotaph located on the grounds of Carlow United Church. The "colour party" is made up of members of the Bancroft Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion complete with piper. Service is conducted by Reverend Lynn Watson, Carlow United Church Minister and Chaplain to the Royal Canadian Legion Bancroft. Refreshments are served by the United Church Women after the service. Access for seniors and handicapped attendees is made easy with the paved walkway to the cenotaph and our ramp to the sanctuary and washroom. |
