Advent is a significant period for Knights of Columbus, marking a time of anticipation and preparation for the celebration of Christ’s birth. As a Knight, this season is an opportunity to deepen one’s faith through acts of charity, prayer, and reflection. The Advent wreath, with its four candles, symbolizes the light of Christ coming into the world, and each week brings a focus on hope, peace, joy, and love. Knights are encouraged to participate in community service, support parish activities, and engage in personal spiritual growth. This period is not just about waiting but actively preparing one’s heart and actions to embody the true spirit of Christmas.

Message from the Grand Knight

Brother Knights,

Sending a reminder about the upcoming Social meeting, November 18th, 6:00 in the Legacy Center, Room 1. This month’s specker is Father Zach Glick. His presentation will be about his journey to become Priest and how the Armed Forces are tied to this journey. Should be very interesting to hear his story. This month’s food item will be Turkey, Dressing, Gravy, and rolls. And anything else others would like to share. Hopefully someone will bring some veggies, maybe mash potatoes, and whatever desserts. Please remember to invite your wives or significant other. Let’s fill Room 1 as we listen (and eat) to Father Zach. 

We will also discuss the upcoming Christmas party in December. 

Pray continue your prayers for Deacon Mike (doing much better), Mary Lou and Jerry Timbrook, Tom Sienkowski and his brother who has passed away, Al Tokley’ niece, Deb and Dwayne Hogan, Jim Welborne and his son, and all of our Spiritual Leaders as they continue to provide us guidance and prayers for all of us.  And all those who need our prayers that I did not mention. Prayers work so keep them coming. Here is a link about the Power of Prayer! catholicexchange.com/great-power-prayer/ 

This year we need to collect and turn in to Gibault the gifts for the kids. Our Christmas party is the night after the usual collection night so we need the gifts before December 5th. John W. Will be taking them. If you have anything for the kids, please drop off at the Legacy center connections desk before or after the weekend masses and someone will collect them. John has a list of gifts that are needed if you need help picking something for them. As always, God Bless and be safe. 

The infant gifts can be brought to our Christmas party. 

Vivat Jesus!
Bruce
