  • Website NEWS
    A M D G BEAUMONT UNION REVIEW. SUMMER 2013 THIS is it –the new style REVIEW; - I hope you find the Website to your liking and easy “to navigate” and I am, of course, open to suggestions as to how it can be improved. There are some advantages to this form of communication. I have been able to include a school history, a section on Trivia and some interesting OBs. The photo gallery will no doubt grow but there are limitations because of cost and time. Then there are the charities which have a close association to Beaumont and links to St John’s and Jerry Hawthorne’s Blog – we are on our way. I am hoping to update THE REVIEW four times a year with editions Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter and back numbers will be placed in “The Library”. Obituaries, which like global warming, are on the increase, I have put in a separate section. There is a “Last updated Box” on the Home Page and a Notice board for anything of immediate importance the Committee would like to draw to your attention. If needs be, I will E-Mail you on matters of urgency. THE REVIEW is available in PDF for those who wish to print a hard copy. THANK YOU “BAILEY BOY” GUY with Lavinia and Charlie. When is the right time to go? When to leave to pursue other interests and hand over the reins, Cash in that annuity and take to the hills? Knowing when to leave is one of the great wisdoms of life and one of the hardest to get right.

  • Pacem in Terris Peace and Freedom Award
    Pacem in terris Peace and Freedom Award Tuesday, April 9, 2019 DAVENPORT, IOWA His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism. He was born in 1935 to a farming family in a small hamlet located in Taktser Amdo, Northeastern Tibet. At the age of two, he was recognized as the reincarnation of the previous 13 Dalai Lamas. At age fifteen, on November 17, 1950, he assumed full temporal political duties. In 1959, following the brutal suppression of the Tibetan national uprising in Lhasa by Chinese troops, His Holiness was forced to flee to Dharamsala, Northern India, where he currently lives as a refugee. He has lived in exile for 60 years in northern India, advocating nonviolently and steadfastly on behalf of the Tibetan people for preservation of their culture, language, religion and well-being. China views the Dalai Lama as a threat to its efforts to control Tibet and Buddhism. He was awarded the 1989 Nobel Peace Prize for his non- violent efforts for the liberation of Tibet and concern for global environmental problems. On Oct. 17, 2007, the Dalai Lama received the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal, our country’s highest civilian honor. His Holiness has traveled around the world and spoken about the welfare of Tibetans, the environment, economics, women’s rights and nonviolence. He has held discussions with leaders of different religions and has participated in events promoting inter-religious harmony and understanding. "The world doesn’t belong to leaders. The world belongs to all humanity."
