Pastoral Care at Leaside United Church

The Pastoral Care Ministry at Leaside United Church is offered through the Minister of Pastoral Care, other ministry staff, and Pastoral Care Committee lay visitors. Together they communicate regularly to review the pastoral care needs of the congregation and to coordinate visits and other activities.

Our lay visitors connect with those in need through visiting, telephone, e-mail and cards. The committee holds occasional special events centered around caring and learning to care for others and ourselves.

Every December the committee hosts a Christmas Tea for seniors and shut-ins. Please see our resource guide for seniors and the partners in care ‘At a Glance’ Resource Guide for Seniors.

Funerals and memorials are important life changing events. There is no right way to do a funeral, and we will not tell you what has to happen. Instead, we will share stories and plan together what will work best for those involved.
