After a wide consultation with many municipal and community groups, the number one concern for seniors is the reality of isolation. In response to this concern we have developed and support the following initiatives:
The Loonie Breakfast
Come join a wonderful group of seniors Thursday mornings! On the first and third Thursday of each month, a coffee and muffin breakfast will served at 9:00 a.m.
On the second and fourth Thursday of the each month, a full hot breakfast will be served at 9:00 a.m.
For information please contact Gail at the church office (514)695-0600
Around the Table Lunches
This is a new program starting in the fall of 2017. Enjoy a light lunch followed by guest speakers, activities or games.
These lunches will take place on the 3rd Tuesday of each month.
For information please contact Gail at the church office (514)695-0600
West Island LGBTQ Centres Seniors' Dinner

West Island New Horizon Ensemble
The West Island New Horizon Ensemble welcomes seniors (55 and older) who want to learn a musical instrument or who played an instrument in a high school band and now have the time and inclination to do so again.
The ensemble meets once a week from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Beaconsfield United Church. The cost of membership is $120, which includes the instructional booklet, the sheet music for the session and membership in the New Horizons International.
If you would like more information, please call (514)242-4831.
Do you need transportation?
We have volunteers who would be happy to pick you up. Just give us a couple of days notice to allow us time to make arrangements!
