GOD IS IN OUR DARKNESS

My name is Keith Knill (Rev. Dr.). I’ve written a book based upon my work as a UC minister and psychotherapist for over 50 years. Its subject is spiritual healing, and it addresses how God is present in our greatest suffering, our healing, and what this means. The book is inspiring, unnerving and potentially explosive theologically, spiritually and therapeutically. To make the book readily available, the book is free to read or download. Please visit keithknill.ca. and click on the image.

IN MEMORY

Rev. Lorne Ross O’Neill

Feb 15, 1928-March 17, 2026

With gratitude for a life well lived, we announce the passing of Lorne O’Neill at age 98, a beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend. Lorne grew up in Toronto, born to Bert and Rose O’Neill. As a young man he felt called to the ministry and after attending Victoria and Emmanuel Colleges was ordained in the United Church (1955). That year he married Jean Ewing and the couple moved to their first charge in Leader, SK. Kerrobert Saskatchewan was their next charge followed by Wilmar Heights United in Scarborough, Central United in St. Thomas, and St John’s United in Alliston, Ontario.

He truly enjoyed preaching The Good News of Jesus Christ and retired in 1992. Lorne was also involved in the Ashram movement and was known for his insightful sermons and sense of humour.

Lorne was predeceased by his loving wife Jean in 2004. He is survived and missed by his son Donald (Lori), daughter Heather (Allan), grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and sister Doreen Stokes (Fred).

Lorne died peacefully at Matthew’s House Hospice at a time of his choosing.

A memorial service was held at St. John’s United Church, Alliston, Ontario, on Saturday May 2nd.

Memorial donations can be directed to St. John’s United Church, Alliston; Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights, Ottawa; or the charity of your choice. Thanks to Rev. Sungmin Jung for his care and support.
