  • A Christmas Message from Larry Monroe It Is Hard for Me to Believe That 2020 Is Coming to an End and Christmas Is Upon Us
    December at MASON 2020 A Christmas Message from Larry Monroe It is hard for me to believe that 2020 is coming to an end and Christmas is upon us. The challenges of this year and the constant weight of the pandemic and world events have in some ways left me feeling a bit robbed of the festive joy I typically experience leading up to December 25. It’s as if I suddenly awoke from a deep sleep and realized Christmas is here. Perhaps you can relate. It has been an unprecedented year on so many fronts. There is so much uncertainty in the world. Today I want to encourage you with a message of hope, that in spite of the chaos that spins around us there is a reassurance and confidence that the world can’t comprehend. We don’t have all of the answers to the world’s troubles, but we can know the One who does. Soon the entire globe will celebrate a baby born miraculously of a virgin mother and laid in a lowly manger. The Son of God was sent as a gift, the supreme expression of love who grew to be a man and who willingly gave His life as a ransom for the sins of the world. We have hope in Him, not that we will live lives without turmoil, confusion, stress and challenges, but hope in that the toils and troubles of this world need not define us, nor will they be our final story. For many, Christmas will be different this year.

  • Breweries of Early Kalamazoo (1837-1915) “The Brew from Kalamazoo”
    All About Kalamazoo History – Kalamazoo Public Library Breweries of Early Kalamazoo (1837-1915) “The Brew from Kalamazoo” By the 1980s, American beer had famously become a homogeneous mass-produced Pilsner-style light lager, with little variation among the leading brands. While beer consumption at the time was at the highest rate in US history, the top ten brewers in the United States alone accounted for 93% of the total domestic beer production, leaving little room for the few that could then be classified as “craft” beer breweries. Still, a young Kalamazoo entrepreneur went into the brewing business, armed only with a recipe, a 15-gallon soup pot, and a $200 birthday gift from his mom. Today, Bell’s Brewery, Inc. is the largest craft brewer in Michigan and ranks among the top 10 in the nation (by sales volume), employing more than 330 people with the capacity to produce more than 500,000 barrels annually. Others have since followed suit, placing Kalamazoo at the forefront of the craft brewing movement with the nation’s first higher ed program in sustainable craft brewing, an annual Kalamazoo Beer Week celebration, and significant worldwide recognition, including a nomination for “Beer City USA” in 2013. Recently, U.S. News & World Report named Kalamazoo among the eight underrated beer cities in the world. Larry Bell and Kalamazoo’s many fine brewmasters follow a long line of local brewers and maltsters that reaches back to the early nineteenth century. In fact, the art of crafting fine (and some perhaps otherwise) beers and ales can be traced to Kalamazoo’s earliest days as a frontier village.

  • Spiritual Gastronomy in Québec
    SPIRITUAL GASTRONOMY TOUR The Province of Québec1 is the largest province in Canada and the second-most populous province of Canada, after Ontario. It is the only one to have a predominantly French- speaking population, with French as the sole provincial official language. Most inhabitants live in urban areas near the Saint Lawrence River between Montréal and Québec City, the capital. The name "Québec", which comes from the Algonquin word kébec meaning "where the river narrows". The history of Québec dates as far back as the discovery of Canada itself. It was indeed on her soil that Jacques Cartier, the envoy of the king of France, landed for the first time in 1534. Since the earliest days of New France in the 17th century, religion and public demonstrations of faith have been a vital aspect of Québec society. The conversion of the Amerindians and the spread of Catholicism throughout North America played a key role in the growth of this initially French and later British colony. Today, this centuries-old tradition is reflected in numerous places of worship, the guardians of Québec’s religious and cultural heritage. The province of Québec counts: 20 Roman Catholic cathedrals 19 Dioceses 4 National Shrines of Canada 2018 64 parishes 1995 269 parishes 2018 228 churches belong to parishes ▪ 46 churches were sold. 12 alienated churches belong to municipalities. ▪ 4 churches are closed to worship and ready to be sold. Since 1980 ▪ 8 churches are considered surplus to the cult ▪ 1 church destroyed by fire. 2018 14 000 priests, nuns 1961 more than 60 000 And we can go on with more information.

  • Black Spruce Oil Picea Mariana - Canada
    CANADIAN NATURALS Black Spruce Oil Picea mariana - Canada DESCRIPTION Black Spruce essential oil is sourced from Northeastern Canada, throughout numerous regions of Quebec. This oil is obtained from the needles and twigs of the Picea mariana tree through steam distillation. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a typical coniferous scent, soft and slightly sweet. OLFACTIVE PROFILE Woody, resinous, slightly sweet. Woody Fresh FLAVOR PROFILE Food grade. DETAILS Botany: Picea mariana, is an evergreen coniferous member of the Pinaceae family. It can reach heights between 8 to 20 meters. The bark is thin, scaly and grayish brown. The needles are long, stiff, four-sided, dark bluish green on the upper sides and paler glaucous green below. Black Spruce forms dense clusters, stopping sunlight from reaching the ground, therefore creating thick moss layers on the soil below. Ethnobotany: Black Spruce was reportedly employed medicinally by many Native Peoples for numerous pathologies. For example, the Cree people used it as an antidiarrheal agent. The Montagnais prepared it as an infusion for the throat. This tree is largely used to produce paper pulp because its fibre is relatively soft. Black Spruce is traditionally used to prepare spruce beer beverages. Uses: Applications include fine fragrance, cosmetics, flavour/food and aromatherapy. TECHNICAL SHEET Botanical name: Picea mariana Botanical family: Pinaceae Accepted synonyms: Common names: Black Spruce, Canadian Black Pine Origin: Northeastern Canada, Quebec Source: Canada Cultivation
