IMPORTANT DATE CHANGE
August
8th (Saturday) for our Officer
Installation and Dinner The date was moved based on
availability of District Deputy
and State Officials. Fr. Page
and Fr. Tony have it on their
schedule and HNJ kitchen and
Hall already changed. This will
give us more time to plan this
wonderful event. Their will be
a charge this year as we're
continuing to upscale the
dinner. Charge will be $8
single and $15 couple (no charge
for young children). There will
be a lot more on this under
separate email (Evite).
Thanks again for all your
support and help!
"…there is nothing more beautiful than to be
surprised by the Gospel, by the encounter with Christ.
There is nothing more beautiful than to
know him and to talk to others of our friendship with
him"
(CDF, "Doctrinal Note on Some Aspects of
Evangelization," 7).
Bishop Wenski Column
On Friday, June 19 th, the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the
Catholic Church will begin – at the request of
Pope Benedict XVI – a year long observance dedicated to
the priesthood. This Year for the Priest will
commemorate the
150th anniversary of the death of the famous
Curé d’Ars, St. John Marie Vianney.

The communion of saints is the intimate union that
exists among all the disciples of Christ. This communion is known as the
Mystical Body of Christ: the Family of God consisting of the faithful on earth
(the Church Militant or pilgrim Church), the holy souls in purgatory undergoing
spiritual cleansing (the Church Suffering), and the saints in heaven (the Church
Triumphant). This union of believers joins us in Christ, our source of grace and
life, and calls us to love and pray for one another as members of His body.
Therefore, we can ask for the prayers of the saints in heaven, and we can also
pray for people on earth and those in purgatory (Catechism, nos. 946-62).
...Some believe that asking the saints in heaven
to pray for us is a form of idolatry. The Catholic Church does not worship any
person other than God, who created everyone and everything. The Church may offer
praise and honor to Mary and the other saints, who are great disciples of the
Lord, but she worships God alone.

Why do we ask for donations every year?
Each year the State council donates a sizeable
amountto eachBishop in the Florida State Council Jurisdiction.
This
includes the Bahamas and St. Lucia
The donations are for the development of vocations
and support of seminarians.
We as Knights Support our priests and help seminarians. We can do more with just a $5.00 donation.
That single donation alone is very small, but
when added with 46,000 like donations and you have over
$230,000.00. That’s a Near a Quarter of a Million dollars.
NOW THAT’S POWER and that is howWE
as Knights of Columbus can help!!
