Lucknow UCW meets to celebrate Thankgiving at River Valley Apts Nancy Walden Lucknow UCW News Lucknow UCW Afternoon Group met on a warm and sunny Oct. 4, 2016 at River Valley Apts., to celebrate Thanksgiving and autumn. Karen Latour welcomed ten members with a prayer of thanksgiving and we sang the hymn "Now Thank We All our God': From the October '16 Observer, Nancy Walden read from an article about gratitude which referenced Paul's letter to the Philippians, and our church's many spiritual prac- tices of thanksgiving including the"cornerstone" of Eucharist. Karen read a piece reminding us to give thanks for our church and all the various people who help to keep it full of life. For potluck program, several members read thoughtful, nos- talgic or humorous articles: about an old-fashioned Thanksgiving, the beauty of autumn, Gertie's hilarious "how many people does it take to change a church light bulb;' Edna s "Moses was a basket case," Sharon's charming article describing a family's twilight walk in an English village to discover a hidden dining room, and closing with Karen's "Love is a grandparent': Roll Call was submitting our Special Project monies, project to be confirmed next meeting. Shirley Bolt gave the Treasurer's report. We sang belated Happy Birthday to August birthdays Elaine Errington and Sharon Hanson.

LUCKNOW NEWS Loud cheering from hockey and baseball fans across Lucknow Ruth Dobrensky Well as you all know by now, Canada won the World Cup of Hockey, yeah us and at the time of writing this column, the Jays were playing the Texas Rangers for the American League Cham- pionship. One step closer to the World Series. Perhaps by the time this paper is published, the Jays will be in the World Series play-offs. I live in hope. This past weekend was Thanksgiving all across Can- ada, many of us don't take enough time to stop and think of all the things we have to be thankful for. Most of us here in the Luc - know area are fortunate enough to have family nearby with whom we were able to share a lovely dinner and time together. All you have to do is to turn on the news to hear/see tragedies happening all around the world to know that not all are as blessed as we are. The Kingsbridge Centre held a local talent night this past weekend called Count Your Blessings, all proceeds went to help the Lalonde family, who lost their home to fire a year ago. The F.E. Madill graduates were honoured this past Friday night at the high school in Wingham. Many of the grads have moved on to colleges and universities across the country and we wish them all the best for their futures. The Terry Fox Run is history for another year. So much money has been raised for can- cer research in honour of Terry Fox that I know we will soon have cures for many of the can- cers out there plaguing us and our families. Congratulations to the Sepoy Manor on the completion of all their additions and renova- tions. A lovely home for seniors is now even more lovely and comfortable for the residents and staff. Sympathies of the commu- nity to the families of : Margue- rite McCormick, 87, Wingham (formerly Teeswater); and, Kathleen Foran, 52, Nepean.
