Coronavirus Connections

This week’s following resource could be helpful for parents of young children or for anyone interested in taking a virtual museum tour.

Website – Travel + Leisure Resources

Stuck at Home?

These 12 Famous Museums Offer Virtual Tours You Can Take on Your Couch
Example – British Museum London – Discover the ancient Rosetta Stone and Egyptian mummies; plus find hundreds of artifacts on the virtual tour

We also know that many of you have already put into place some measures to help your “kiddos” (had to insert a Caroline reference) and yourselves and would love to hear from you. Is there something you’ve done that could be helpful for others? Have you found some interesting online resources? Please contact Sandra Sales at sandra.sales093@gmail.com to share! OUC has a long successful history of being a community of faith and there may be no greater time than now for us to continue to support one another

1 Thessalonians 5: 11

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

By now, it is likely that we have all embraced the need to keep a “physical distance” from one another and to practice “self-isolation” in an effort to protect ourselves and those around us from this novel coronavirus and to “flatten the curve.” Unfortunately, this prevents us from having face to face, in person, social visits with one another. Despite this constraint, there are a number of ways for us to stay connected with each other during this unprecedented time.


Zoom Cafés

At this time, we would like to introduce regular virtual social hangouts, Zoom Cafés, for those of you who may be interested. Depending on whether you have a computer with internet access, telephone conference calls or virtual video chatting could be set up for this purpose.

We have scheduled our second virtual coffee/tea/wine break for parents with young children. It will be held on Thursday, May 12th, at 8h45 pm via Zoom. I, Luc Lamadeleine, will be hosting this social time together. My wife, Arlene, and I have a 9 year-old daughter, Zoe. She is currently in 3rd grade at l’école Des Pionniers and is currently receiving her class instructions virtually. She is an only child although we also have Pearl, a Bichon Frisé puppy, at home to keep Zoe, and all of us, company. There is no agenda for this meeting. We hope that many of you will be able to join us.

If these virtual social visits interest you, please let us know and keep in mind that although some of you may already be quite connected virtually, this may be an opportunity to reach out to others who may be desperately seeking to connect with others during this most difficult time.
Should you have any questions, please call or email Luc Lamadeleine at 613-296-3155 or luc@duuo.ca.

Welcome to Orleans United Church

At Orleans United Church we seek to be a place where people of all ages, stages, backgrounds, and traditions can come together to worship God and build community.

Worship takes place on Sunday mornings at 10 am, with nursery care and programs for our children and youth offered each week. We would be delighted to have you join us.

So bring a friend, invite a neighbour, spread the word – the Spirit is alive and at work at Orleans United Church and we are excited about all that God has in store for us.
