Our Mission

Connect with what matters in life.

Fairlawn is a caring and inclusive community of believers, seekers, and doubters, concerned more with thoughtful questions than simple answers.

Our call as a faith community reflects our core purpose for ministry - to support transformation in each other and those around us in practical and spiritual ways. We aim to do so with curiosity, creativity, and courage in uncertain times.

We are not alone, We are connected to God and each other by love. We seek to connect with what matters in life by providing a safe place for everyone to:

- Explore Spirituality by asking life's big questions of God and ourselves

- Experience Belonging by building community and connection with others

- Embrace Action by helping to create a society where all can live in dignity

With our vibrant services of worship with inspiring music from our superb choirs under the direction of Eleanor Daley, our challenging and uplifting sermons from Rev. Douglas duCharme, our commitment to children and youth combined with our profound belief in speaking with and for the marginalized, Fairlawn is a congregation whose faith is put into action each and every week.

We are a strong, loving, and connected community of people excited to discover where God is calling us next. We truly believe that wherever you are on your life’s journey, there is a place for you here at Fairlawn Avenue United Church!
