Holy Week busy in Brussels
Ahhhh, a sigh is extended, one
busy week is over for another year.
Holy Week in Brussels is a busy
time for the church crowd. Daily
noontime services are offered by the
Brussels and area Ministerial, that
large word means the Ministers from
each of the area churches. So a
rotation is set and they and their
catering members take a turn
offering worship and lunch. It’s
good to hear what the other
denominations are saying about the
events that changed the world, and
fun to share lunch with folks you see
on the street. It’s an excellent way to
set up for the events of that Friday so
long ago and then the preparation
for Easter.
The university gang is finishing
exams and hopefully heading for
well-paying summer jobs. So now
it’s deciding what comes home, andwhat can stay. Meanwhile thesecondary school crew is makingdecisions that will set them up for
the next few years. Will I get a job,
should I try for an apprentice or
which university or college will suit
me best? And you get excited about
today’s menu!
Lots of family were home for
Easter with many different traditions
shared. It’s interesting to hear what
each family does to celebrate Easter.
Menus vary and have changed over
the years.
For some, turkey and ham are the
stable items, for others lasagna and
roast beef are enjoyed, for most, the
sharing of a grilled cheese sandwich
would be quite acceptable as long as
family is together, the food is
important but definitely secondary.
After a meal, the traditions
continue – a leisurely walk, a game
or two of road hockey, a round of
skipping, games of cards or an egg
hunt or perhaps just resting and
visiting together signal important
family time.
Family also has changed to
include anyone on your love list.
Blood relatives do not always make
the best family and so at times of
celebration we want to spend our
time with those we love to make for
the best gathering yet. So I’m
hoping you had a very Happy Easter.
At this house, it’s almost tax
freedom time, yippee April 30, and
that’s a celebration as the tax trafficis greatly reduced and I don’t have tobe quite as careful with my state ofdress and kitchen counter; so here’s
to May.
Enjoy all the growth and new life
of spring.
Bye now, Betty G.W.

NEWS
FROM BRUSSELS
At the Branch
Cadets fundraise in Brussels
By Jo-Ann McDonald
It was a quiet weekend at the
Brussels Legion Branch. There were
no events held and the Branch was
closed for Good Friday, so there was
no Friday night supper. This week is
ham and scalloped potatoes.
The nominating committee has
been busy these past weeks calling
Comrades to fill positions on the
executive. We hope all the positions
will be filled for the elections.
The Cadets were tagging around
town on Saturday hoping to raise
funds for the corps. They also are
still collecting returnable bottles and
cans. Please drop them off on
Tuesday evenings at the Branch.
The Brussels Legion Pipe Band
welcomes new members any time.
Learn to play the pipes or the drums.
Call Pipe Major Don Martin if you
might be interested in learning.
The Brussels Lions Club held
their monthly meeting and bring-a-
friend night at the Branch on
Monday evening. The over-30
gentlemen enjoyed a delicious roast
beef dinner. Helping for the Branch
were Jo-Ann McDonald, Debbie
Caan, Helen Brenie and Mary
Bradshaw.
