The Rural Municipality of Lawrence is a former rural municipality (RM) in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It was originally incorporated as a rural municipality on November 5, 1914.[1] It ceased on January 1, 2015 as a result of its provincially mandated amalgamation with the RM of Ochre River to form the Rural Municipality of Lakeshore.[2]

The former RM is located on the northeast shore of Dauphin Lake.
