Baptism in the United Church is recognized by all denominations of the Christian church that practise infant baptism. Similarly, if people have already been baptized in another church, the United Church recognizes their baptism and welcomes them as Christians. At Fairlawn we celebrate the Sacrament of Baptism at several specially designated services throughout the year, during our Sunday church service at 10:30 am.
Fairlawn performs all marriages allowed by the Ontario government, including same-sex marriages. Our staff will consult with you on how we can help you celebrate your cultural and spiritual background for this special occasion. Ministry staff perform marriage ceremonies within the church building and offsite. Consultation with the staff to celebrate each couple’s culture and spiritual background is encouraged.
At some point in our lives, we will be faced with planning a funeral or memorial service for a loved one. Fairlawn Avenue United Church is here to help you through the process.

Fairlawn Remembers
From March 2020 to May 2022, public health guidelines prevented us from gathering to celebrate the lives of congregants and their family members who had passed away. They were honoured in Fairlawn Remembers, an online site of tributes. Now that we are once again able to come together to commemorate lives once lived, we will not be adding further pages. Sincere thanks to Barb Steep for coordinating this initiative.
