MINISTERIAL MESSAGES
This evening I am attending a meeting in a neighbouring town. They are a part of what we call “the
Quad Parish.” We are making new arrangements for ministry. As a pastor serving in the area, I will
be helping out our neighbours at Quinton, Raymore, Govan and Duval.
Of course, this was discussed with my church councils in Strasbourg and Bulyea. When the matter
came up for discussion, I was grateful but not surprised at their response. They were excited, even
thrilled to be able to do something for the following churches up the road.
My role in this arrangement is minor but needed. I am a small part of the team. This is exciting for
me to participate in as well. My colleague Murray Patzwold is a person with skill and a great heart. He
has been doing this work for a while, and this is the next stage in a beautiful partnership.
In my eyes, this is a Gospel moment. It is a chance for Murray’s parish and mine to support one
another in love. The way they are doing this is beautiful. One of our Psalms says it well: “How good,
how beautiful it is when brothers (and sisters) live together in unity.” When we reach out to each other
in support and love, we are obeying the Great Commandment of Jesus, which is to love God and to
love each other.
So whenever you help a neighbour, you are obeying Christ. When you give to someone, you are
following him. When you do good to anyone in need, you are giving to Jesus. And when you put on a
mask or get a vaccination, you are serving the highest good any person can; loving those around you.
Keep loving. Jesus is with you!

We have received grants from Dominion Royal Canadian Legion, the Federal Government, the
Provincial Royal Canadian Legion, and the Provincial Government to help with operating expenses
as we can not have any fundraising activities. We received a grant from the Provincial Government to
do some much-needed work in the basement of our hall. We also received a grant from BHP potash to
assist with housing the Mobility Bus. With all the lockdowns, the bus has been used very little. These
grants have enabled Legions across the province to remain open to provide services and maintain
their buildings. We have received approval to spent some money from the Poppy Trust Fund to assist
in the purchase of a new ECG machine for the Nokomis Health Centre Lab.
In 2020 we were not able to have a Flag Day, but members placed flags in all the crosses of Veterans
at all cemeteries. Due to the Covid protocols, the 2020 Remembrance Day service was held with
ten members in attendance. It is important to honour and remember all our veterans who made the
ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Lest We Forget.
This year we were able to have Flag Day with only a few minor changes to comply with Public
Health Orders. Chaplain Rick Shott and Comrade Doug Sather lead the services. Comrades Kerry
Sather & Vance Halstead were Flag Bearers. We started out in Lockwood at 9:30 with a good turnout
of Lockwood people to help place flags. From there, we went to Govan, where there was again a good
turn out of Govanites to take part and place flags. A small group then went to St. Olaf’s Cemetery
to place flags. The final service at 2:30 pm started at Nokomis Cenotaph and then proceeded to the
cemetery. Comrade Laverne Sobus laid the Canada wreath, and Mayor David Mark laid a wreath for
the Town of Nokomis at the cenotaph. Comrade Doug Potter escorted each. It rained on and off all
day, just letting up during each service, it seemed. We are saddened to have lost 6 Legion members
since 2019. They are Comrades Jack Rody, Palmer Unseth, Joyce Hards, Robert McNichol, Barry
McClughan and Marv Gilbertson.
As people get vaccinated, and protocols are relaxed, we look forward to again welcoming the public
to our hall for social events.
