Pastoral Care
Pastoral Care Ministers bring the Eucharist to people in their homes, as well as to residents of local nursing and retirement homes.
​
We share news about parish activities and lend a sympathetic ear to parishioners who are isolated. Time spent visiting can be from 15 minutes to an hour.
​
Please call the Parish Office at 613-722-7661 or Linda Wicker (613-820-9735) if you know of a shut-in who would like to receive communion, or if you feel called to serve in this important ministry.

Pro-Life
Our mission is to promote a respect for human life from the moment of conception to a natural death.
We educate the general public about alternatives to abortion and euthanasia by raising awareness about life issues such as embryonic stem cell research.
​
We provide information to parishioners about opportunities to learn about and to pray for pro-life issues.
​
Occasional fundraising projects for pro-life organizations, e.g., Campaign Life and Action Life and distressed pregnancy help centres (Miriam Centre, Birthright), take place throughout the year.
​
A time commitment of a few hours in April, May and December are utilized on these projects.
​
New volunteers are most welcome. Please call the Parish Office or Catherine Swimmings (613-729-1869) if you have any questions or would like to volunteer (info@fatimaparish.ca)
