Lifting lonelinesss: actions and Resources.
the Loneliness Café
TUESDAYS 9:30am - noon
community hall, Allan St. door
2096 Windsor St.
The idea of the ‘Loneliness Café’ is to provide a safe place where people gather with others. Some will come wanting to be in the presence of others but do their own thing. Others will come for connection and to share in conversation. The Loneliness Café is a ministry of support, compassion, and community.
Coffee and tea is on! And you are invited to come!
Drop in. Hang out.
Bring a friend for coffee and a quiet place to talk.
Enjoy conversation with others.
Bring a book & find a comfortable nook to read in.
Step aside for quiet time or write in a journal.
Participate in colouring a mural.
Peruse resources to support those who are lonely.
Community Activities
Special interest groups
will participate in the café
Activities happen at the same time allowing for participation if you so choose,
if not that is okay too!
