Many members of the parishcommunitY attended the Annual Pro -Life Pot Luck Dinner at the Goderich Township Hall in Holmesville on Tuesday evening, October 20th. Guest speaker Beverly Madland, who herself has undergone two abortions, held the audience captive as she delivered an inspiring and informative talk of the abor- tion issue and the overwhelming lack of Morality in our world today. The Youth Club held their regular week- ly meeting in the school Sunday evening with Louise Martin leading a lively and in- formative look at the Book of Genesis. On Oct. 21st several ladies from the Parish Community paid a special visit to Donny and Dorothy Farrish's Country Road Lodge, a retirement home for area residents. The occasion of the visit was to commemorate resident Frank Sullivan, a life-long resident of Kingsbridge, who achieved the memorable milestone of 99 years of age this past July 25th. Along with Frank, tribute was paid to all the other residents as well. In honour of the occasion a large plant surrounded by many dif- ferent kinds of fruits was presented to Frank to be shared with the other residents. A program consisted of a sing -song led by Betty -Lou Dalton who presented a few solo numbers before being joined•by the other visiting ladies. Accompanying the ladies on the organ was resident Alice Hewitt. Beth McConnell formerly of Dungannon and now a resident of the Country Road Lodge entertained by reading several poems of her own com- position from a large selection she has written.. The Father McCormack Council of the Knights of Columbus held their regular monthly meeting at St. Joseph's Hall on Wednesday evening, Oct. 21st. Bill VanOsch reported on the great success of the Octoberfest held in conjunction with the Goderich Knights of Columbus at the Saltford Valley on Oct. 17th. A profit of $2280.00 was realized and is to be shared between the two councils. The Council was also informed that ap- proximately $4600.00 is coming to them from the Goderich Council. This sum of money is from a building fund that was started in Goderich with - the intent of building a Knights of Columbus 'Hall but was never realized. At the time the money was raised, members of the Father Mc- Cormack Council were still members of the Goderich Council and therefore are KINGSBRIDGE PARISH/SCHOOL Louise Martin now entitled to their share in the new Father McCormack Council. It is urged that as many members as possible attend the next regular meeting as a decision will be made at that time, with whatever membership is present, as to what use these funds should be put to. Members at the meeting had the oppor- tunity to view an excellent video of the First Annual Communion Breakfast taken by Jean Lalonde and presented by Jean and Father Ed. During the course of the meeting which was . presided over by Grand Knight Don Frayne, Father Ed, as Chaplain, delivered an inspirational talk to the members. The meeting was closed with a prayer. At the school the kids are gearing up for the big day at the end of the month with all kinds of activities to keep the excitement building. St. Joseph's School is now the proud possessor of 10 new ICON computers which will be on display for the Parent's Meeting on Thursday, Oct. 29th at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 21st the Grades 5-8 classes along with teachers Tracey Devlin and Phil Antonio visited the Wawanosh Conservat$bn Area where they studied how various animals prey on others in a forest community by participating in an activity called "The Survival Game" ., hich was greatly enjoyed by the students. The Kindergarten to Grade 4 classes travelled to St. Mary's in Goderich on :Thursday, Oct. 22nd to see the play "Dick Whittington and his Cat" which is part of the "Artists in the School" program.
