The Friendly Circle held its May meeting on Tuesday, May 9, at Akron Community Church. Vice President Tom Williams welcomed everyone and conducted the meeting.

Ginny and Ken Brown greeted 69 members and one guest to the meeting.

The theme song “The More We Get Together” was sung followed by “The Pledge of Allegiance” and “God Bless America.” They sang “Battle Hymn of the Republic” and “Let There Be Peace on

Earth” with Gladys Horvath accompanying on the piano.

The devotional leader for May was Pastor Brad Haws from St. John’s United Church of Christ. Pastor Brad told them he loves trivia. He informed them of some trivia facts: there are more private owners of tigers in the United States than tigers in the wild, there are 30 times more trees on earth then stars in the Milky Way, it took until 2015 for London to have the same number of people as in 1939, there are three vacant houses for every homeless person in the United States. People waste a lot of what they know and don’t use what they do know. There are 158 million employees in sweatshops in the world.

John the Baptist said to his followers “there goes the Lamb of God,” he must increase, I must decrease.

John the Baptist found the Messiah and stayed with Jesus. He let Jesus change their lives. What you know about God and Jesus, what has it done for you? When they know they follow just as Andrew and Peter did. Pastor Brad gave a blessing before their meal.

After the delicious meal, they were entertained by Karl Hausman, he began playing the piano at seven years old. In the 1960s he opened for Johnny Cash throughout Canada. He appeared with Dick Clark, Roy Clark, Diamond and Lou Rawls plus others. In the 1980s, he was the “Main St. Pianist in the Magic Kingdom at Disney World. He played a variety of music (from polkas, rock and roll and patriot) for the group, which they thoroughly enjoyed.
