Dear Friends of the Holloway Memorial Chapel:
An Easter Blessing...
This is the season of the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ! We have so much to celebrate with spring upon us and new beginnings. I love the Hallelujah Chorus and all the celebratory music that signals the end of Lent. Every Easter, my father would buy my mother, my sister and I an orchid corsage to wear to church on Easter Sunday. To this day I LOVE orchids. Easter morning meant a delicious breakfast of eggs and sweet pastries with a bite of chocolate from my Easter basket before church. I couldn’t wait for the coffee hour after the service to see the bright colored tulips and daffodils on the table. Between the music, food, and colorful flowers, it made me feel like something special had happened. Indeed, it did and we all look to this new beginning every spring!
The Chapel is planning to have in person worship services this season along with our beloved Strawberry Festival. The threat of closures still looms but, I am keeping a positive attitude that we all will be together again this season. Please all pray for this too – we have a strong power in numbers with our prayers!
Look for our mailing at the end of May or beginning of June and be sure to check our website https://hollowaymemorialchapel.org often for updates and messages. We will need volunteers for the Strawberry Festival, Wednesday, June 22nd, 2022. Please consider helping with setup, strawberry cutting and serving. It will be a BIG celebration to all be reunited again!
God Bless Us all and prayers for Peace on Earth!
Laurie Wright
President of the Holloway Memorial Chapel
The Holloway Memorial Chapel was founded in 1894 in honor of Issac and Mary Ann Holloway. Through the years it has welcomed residents and visitors to the Ridgeway Ontario area to participate in Sunday Services throughout the summer season.
Our mission is to bring together an inter-denominational worship community through praise, proclamation, music, teaching and sharing. We welcome freedom of thought and opinion to all who enter. We believe the experience of loving fellowship will bring joy and peace to each person's spiritual journey.
Sunday Services are held at 10:00 AM throughout the summer months. Please see the Calendar Page for the 2022 Schedule and Speaker Names.
Through the years the Chapel has been a special place to hold weddings, baptisms, memorial services and other similar events.
