I know all clubs are now back in full swing and are out providing many different ser- vices throughout Nova Scotia. I have started my visitations and I am thoroughly enjoying seeing firsthand what our Lions are doing. I am asking Lions to take some time to get to know their fellow Lions. We are all one in the Li- ons Family. Find out what their interests are, why they joined Lions and are they happy with where they are in their Lion’s journey. I believe it is important that we take the time needed to support our fellow Lions as well as serving our communities’ needs. The Multiple District has come out with a new Global Service Project. As you can see below, a business card has been designed for Lions to use. When a Lions sees a community person in need of assistance, we ask that you give them your filled-out card and help them with their need. i.e. help a mother with kids, help carry her groceries to the car or clean snow and ice off a senior’s car in a parking lot. We are then asking Lions to report your act of service to your club’s GST co- ordinator or log into your own account on MYLION and report it yourself. I will be dispersing the cards on my visitations. Looking forward to seeing all what you do!

  • Simon Gibbons
    Simon Gibbons Simon Gibbons was the first Inuit priest in the Church of England. He was born on June 21, 1851 in Forteau, Labrador – about 13 km north east of the Quebec border. His mother died in childbirth. At five years old Simon was sent by the Anglican Missionary in Forteau to the Church of England Widows and Orphans Asylum (CEWOA) in St. John’s, Newfoundland. While there, he showed “intellect of no ordinary degree” and was placed in the Church of England Academy when he was nine. Two years later, Sophia Mountain, the Lady Superintendent of the orphanage (CEWOA) took Simon under her care. Then, when Simon was 15, she married Edward Field, the Bishop of Newfoundland in 1867. So, in just a few years, Simon went from being an orphan to the Bishop’s Court. Following his graduation from the Academy, Simon began to prepare to take an active part in the ministry of the Church. He became part of a group who trained and worked as Lay Readers, Teachers, and Catechists in Newfoundland’s outports. On one occasion during this time, he was leading a Sunday morning Service in the large kitchen of a fisherman’s house. It was packed with people, and Simon was standing in the place of honour by the roaring stove. Just as he began the sermon, the lady of the house stood up in her place, by the door, waving her raised hand. “Hold a minute, Parson!” she cried. Simon stopped. The lady continued, “Sal, the puddin’!” Sal, seated on the other side of the stove, arose, took from the dresser the Sunday dumpling in its cloth and popped it into the pot boiling on the stove.
