The Grand Knights Message
I am very proud of what this council is becoming. We will probably never be a large council or have tens of thousands of dollars in the bank but I am proud of what our small, dedicated and resourceful group can accomplish. Some of our officers have been active for 20 or 25 years or more. Some of our newest member, whether they are transfers or new to the order have become our most active members. We have some members that are not real active in the council but are so active in the Church that they make the rest of us look good. Thank you to all.
Finally, join me in prayer for the brother Knights that we have lost and those that are ill. I pray that they find comfort if they are ill and in pain and I pray that those who have passed find rest in the presence of Jesus.
I am blessed to be part of such an active council. We have a busy September and October coming up so I hope that you can find some time to help with all of our activities. Below is a summary of everything that happened at the meeting last night.
1. $500 was approved for Seminarian Julio Reyes. Our council has given $500 to all the seminarians who have come through our church since I have been in the Knights and probably for a good bit longer than that.
2. $250 was approved to help purchase vestments for Fr. Chris.
3. Our Fundraiser Breakfast will be September 8th. If you can help prepare and serve, please let me know. Also please share though email and social media. $7 per person. $20 per family max. Profits are being split with the Food Pantry.
4. We will have a recruitment drive on September 21st and 22nd. Please let me know if you can help man a table before or after a mass.
5. There will be a 1st Degree in Johnston Hall on Tuesday September 24th at 7:30pm.
6. KOVAR will be October 24th - 26th at the ABC store beside Martin's. There is a schedule below. We need 2 people for each shift. Please let me know if you can fill any of the spaces.
God Bless,
Brett Sinclair

Donations for the packages can be made out to the Knights of Columbus and mailed to the: Shenandoah Valley Assembly P.O. Box 1441 Harrisonburg, VA The Knights of Columbus is urging its members and other Catholic Americans to pray for our Country. Most Holy Trinity: Our Father in Heaven, who chose Mary as the fairest of your daughters; Holy Spirit, who chose Mary as your Spouse; God the Son, who chose Mary as your Mother, in union with Mary we adore your majesty and acknowledge your supreme, eternal dominion and authority. Most Holy Trinity, we put the United States of America into the hands of Mary Immaculate in order that she may present the country to you. Through her we wish to thank you for the great resources of this land and for the freedom which has been its heritage. Through the intercession of Mary, have mercy on the Catholic Church in America. Grant us peace. Have mercy on our president and on all the officers of our government. Grant us a fruitful economy, born of justice and charity. Have mercy on capital and industry and labor. Protect the family life of the nation. Guard the precious gift of many religious vocations. Through the intercession of our Mother, have mercy on the sick, the tempted, sinners – on all who are in need. Mary, Immaculate Virgin, our Mother, Patroness of our land, we praise you and honor you and give ourselves to you. Protect us from every harm. Pray for us, that acting always according to your will and the will of your divine Son, we may live and die pleasing to God. Amen. |
