District Divine Service Nov 9, 2008

The 2008 District Divine Service was held this year at the Riceville United Church. A near capacity crowd of 104 people filled the church for this remembrance service. Following the service the attendees were invited to a reception at the South Plantagenet Hall hosted by the District Deputy Grand Master R.W.Bro Bob Cleary and His Lady Ada Marie.
