Area Quakers meet to share ideas, brainstorm and take part in discussions Quakers from the local Luc - know and Area Worship group recently attended a regional gathering at Norwich. Brent and Carol Bowyer and Tony and Fran McQuail took in the full-day event on Oct. 30, 2016, which included creative brainstorming, sharing ideas within the context of silent wor- ship, and large and small group discussions. Those present shared what originally drew them to Quakerism and what keeps them involved, many spoke of their deep appreciation for a spiritual home where questions, individ- ual responsibility, and diversity, rather than conformity, are valued. The gathering was held at the Norwich Museum, which in its early years was the building in which Norwich -area Quakers worshiped during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Others pre- sent came from as far away as Pelham in the Niagara peninsula, Sparta, near St. Thomas, and Coldstream, west of London. Some of the groups have his- toric meeting houses while oth- ers meet in rented facilities or homes of members. Quakers are formally known as the Religious Society of Friends; they trace back to the time of the Civil War in 1640s England. They are known for several long-standing testimonies: Peace and non-violent resolution of problems, the equality of all peo- ple, simplicity, continuing revela- tion, and "that of God" in each human being. Quakers in Ontario have been active since the late 1790s and early 1800s when many immigrated from the U.S. after the American Revolution.

LUCKNOW NEWS Vegetable stand now coming to Lucknow both Wednesdays and Fridays Ruth Dobrensky Well, I was wrong, the World Series was not over by the time last week's Sentinel was published, but it is over now. I, like many baseball fans, stayed up into the early hours of the morning to watch the nail biter, rain -delayed, seventh game of the play-offs last Wednesday. I joyfully watched the Chi- cago Cubs win their first World Series in 108 years. It was a very riveting series and a fantastic game. Don't forget that this Friday is Remembrance Day. There will be a service at the Lucknow Community Christian Reformed Church at 10 a.m. followed by a Legion Service at the Ceno- taph at 11 a.m. Try to get out if you can to show our thanks and respect to all those who gave their lives or service so that we could live in this wonderful country of ours in peace and without fear. Many whose families have been in Canada for a long time lost family members or friends in both wars. Our family is no excep- tion, we were lucky and only lost one in the second world war, my dad's younger brother Mike who is buried near Bou- logne, France. This past Saturday, Luc - know Legion, Branch 309 held their annual Remem- brance Banquet. The dinner, as usual, was wonderfully prepared by the ladies from Trinity United Church. The evening always acknowl- edges veterans and war brides and always has a spe- cial message and music. Lucknow United Church held their annual Christmas Bazaar, Bake Sale and Lunch- eon this past Saturday as well. It was a good place to get your Christmas shopping started with lots of crafts and goodies for sale. Kingsbridge Centre was also very busy this past Satur- day evening with a special production of The Padre's War Diary and his Music with special readings. Musical selections were provided by the Goderich Harbouraires. In case anyone is inter- ested, my little family consist- ing of myself and my four -leg- ged daughter Smokey have adopted a son. He's 1.5 years old, and since he's black and white, like four other cats in my life, his name is George V. We've had a few getting get- ting to know each other pains, but the kinks are working themselves out, and no one has lost any hair or blood. The only problem we now have is to get him used to the name of George, the poor fel- low has already had three other names in his short life, talk about confusion. Just to bring everyone up- to-date, the vegetable stand coming to town on Wednes- day's is now also coming to town on Friday's and can be found beside the post office box building on both of those days, weather permitting. Sympathies of the commu- nity to the family of Kenneth Dore, 55, Ripley (formerly Lucknow).
