Chalmers’ Pastoral Care
Printed Chalmers Bulletins and E-Blasts are delivered weekly to 15 members of our Congregation who don’t have access to email and are unable to attend church.
Linda, Heather and Mary, with the help of others, prepare and deliver cookie trays 5 times a year to over 50 members of Chalmers.
On Sundays when flowers are donated, bouquets of flowers are made up from our Worship Service floral arrangements and delivered to members who would benefit.
If you feel someone is in need of pastoral contact, please email or call the church office with details. (office@chalmersunitedchurch.com or 613-546-3263 ext. 222)

Communion
The Sacrament of Communion is rooted in the meal that Jesus shared with his disciples just before the crucifixion, other meals that Jesus shared with friends, and the feasts of the Jewish people. When early Christians gathered around the table, they were remembering Jesus and celebrating his ministry that continued to live in a new way among them.
At Chalmers, the Sacrament of Communion takes place on various Sundays throughout the year and at significant occasions like Christmas and Easter. An occasional mid-week service of communion is held for those unable to attend the regular service on Sunday. Home communion is available by contacting our Ministers of Pastoral Care.
