Trinity Anglican Church, Lambeth, Ontario
Trinity Anglican Church, Lambeth is in a 2-point parish with Christ Church, Glanworth. Rector is Rev. Elaine Clark. The village of Lambeth, Ontario is now part of the city of London. Among the outreach programs is a Prayer Shawl ministry with the church's knitting group, The Knitters of Hope, knitting the Prayer Shawls. Shawls, which have been made for centuries, are universal and embracing. They wrap, enfold, comfort and give solace. Comments from those who have received a shawl said they have been uplifted and affirmed, as if given wings to fly above their troubles. They often feel like they have been given a hug from God.
