We begin this week by recognizing the significance of this Easter week end in the Christian calendar, and by wishing all of our readers, a blessed and peaceful Easter.
 
The Rotary Club of Gros Islet and the Rotaract Club of Gros Islet have a few members travelling to Guadeloupe, some from this week end and others in the course of next week, where we will participate in the annual District 7030 conference and District leadership training.  There will therefore be no bulletin next week as yours truly will be a part of Team Gros Islet in Guadeloupe.
 
This week we again had a number of guests at out weekly meeting.

The photographer seems to have had an adverse effect on PP Peter, which given his profession as a funeral director (a second career), is slightly worrying -  laughwink
