Trevor Davies, secretary, South Hams Circle 368, Province 13, Catenian Assoc-iation, writes:

On Monday, October 19, the South Hams Catenians Circle celebrated its second birthday with their ladies.

Following a meeting ­attended by visitors from the Plymouth Circle, including Bob Butler, we had a very tasty ­dinner. We then had a draw and a few jokes from Brother Trevor Davies, who was ­standing in for the president.

Trevor presented Brother Bob with the new South Hams Circle tie to thank him for all the support he had given right from the start.

After dinner Roy Beaumont, the coordinator for the Plymouth Street Pastors, gave us a most interesting and informative speech about the excellent work they carry out.

One of the visiting brothers from Plymouth, Cesar Alarcon, is also serving as a street pastor in Plymouth, which he joined following a talk by the previous coordinator while Trevor was president of the Plymouth Circle. Cesar is now a team leader.

Brother Trevor then presented Roy with a cheque and the ­proceeds of the draw, which will go towards the good works of the street pastors.

If you are interested in becoming a Catenian and you are a Catholic gentleman over the age of 18, please contact me.

We meet in the Seven Stars public house on the third Monday of each month, apart from August.
