September 2020 Dispatch September 2020 Dispatch Brother Knights, This serves as my second monthly dispatch to the council as Grand Knight… praise God for continuity and inspiration! It’s hard to believe that September is already here (Tempus Fugit, Memento Mori), but I pray that God has been present in your lives and that you are able to converse with the LORD daily and attend Mass in person or virtually as often as possible (see Good of the Order below). If you take a look at the summary of upcoming events below, you will see that we have another busy month. I would especially like to point your attention to the Silver Rose event. This has become a very important endeavor to me and I would really appreciate a good showing from brother Knights. Additionally, our monthly general meeting, which will be September 9 after 5:30 Mass, will be no ordinary meeting. There are two neat things happening, so perhaps you won’t want to miss it. I will be honest that I’m attempting to build up enough interest that we get to see a good number of new faces, which is always exciting. Fun fact: St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta, whose feast day is September 5, had an affinity for the Knights of Columbus. Although she was typically known to eschew worldly honors for her work, she did accept an award from the Knights of Columbus stating, “I accepted to come, and to accept out of sheer gratitude, for they (the Knights of Columbus) have done so much for our congregation and for our poor.” If I don’t happen to see you at any point this month, know that I will be praying for you and your family, asking the LORD to bless each of you abundantly! Happy birthday to Past Grand Knight Tim Mohatt and Terrence Rush today! Also, St. Giles, pray for us. Upcoming Events Summary 1. The Silver Rose – on Saturday, September 5, our council will be hosting the Silver Rose. This is a Knights of Columbus program dedicated to Our Lady of Guadalupe. We will provide a prayer service for the parish after 5:30 Mass where we will ask for Mary to assist us in ending the culture of death throughout the world. Our Silver Rose, along with seven others, is travelling from Canada, through the United States, and on through Mexico until it reaches the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The roses will be presented to Our Lady, which will carry the weight of all the prayers each council has contributed to them. Let’s make this a powerful contribution! 2. Pancake Breakfast – on September 6 (first Sunday of the month), we need volunteers for serving at our pancake breakfast in the Mainelli Center. These are a fun and easy way to help raise funds for our charitable council donations and hang out with brother Knights. See Sign Up Genius link. a. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0C44AFA92CAAFB6-september/ 3. Special Donation Event and Juan Diego Anniversary Celebration – at our September general council meeting on Wednesday, September 9, following 5:30 Mass, the council will be hosting a special event to unveil a donated item for the Knights room and also enjoying a catered meal from the Juan Diego food bank. Juan Diego is gifting this meal to our council to commemorate the awesome service milestone of 15 years! Please join us for these events, but don’t forget to help us pray the Rosary before 5:30 Mass, if you are available! 4. Mater Filius Assistance – on Saturday, September 12, our council along with other councils in District 2 will combine efforts to complete tasks that Mater Filius needs assistance with. The scheduled activities include tearing out bushes, trimming bushes, cleaning out the daycare basement, and possibly digging out an egress window well. Please email me at [email protected] to let me know if interested and I will keep you informed of developments. 5. Soccer Challenge – on Sunday, September 20, we need volunteers to help with our annual Soccer Challenge, which will be held on the field west of St. Robert’s at approximately 1 PM. This is a fun and easy outdoor event. We will need volunteers who have gone through the Knights of Columbus safe environment training.

St. Robert Bellarmine, Pray for Us! ^Read up on this interesting saint. He was reported to have flying capabilities! Good of the Order Brother Knights, I am dedicating the September 2020 Good of the Order to The Exaltation of the Cross, which is celebrated on September 14 th . The Cross is a sign of brutal torture, agony, and death, yet it is also the sign that Jesus chose to show us that He loves us unconditionally. It is the sign that life brings many challenges, but it also reminds us that we are able to face them with the LORD at our side and the LORD will get us through them, just as He conquered that terrible death upon it. It is the sign of new life in God’s infinite love that follows all death, spiritual and physical, and this is the primary reason we exalt it. But why the Cross? It is brutal, it is ugly. How can it actually be a sign of all those good things I previously mentioned? Why has it been able to inspire small and great works of charity, major life conversions, and even martyrdom throughout the history of the Church? We know that Jesus’ Baptism in the Jordan opened the gates of Heaven after they had been closed. His subsequent earthly travels and ministry taught us about divine love and mercy, that Jesus was indeed the Messiah, the powerful Son of God (that the Kingdom of God was indeed at hand), and about the need and importance of repentance. His Resurrection broke the bonds of death, promised an afterlife with Him, the Father, and Holy Spirit, and produced a faith in God and eternal life so strong that we no longer have to be fearful of death as the end. But the Cross, the Crucifixion of Jesus, is just some horrible intermediate event in between all the good things, right? Jesus’ death was just a necessity in order to prove that He had the power to reverse death, right? In a simple yet profound answer, the Cross is the holy altar upon which Jesus, the purest Lamb of God, the Spotless Victim, was sacrificed as an offering to the Father for our redemption from our sins, and then as a means for our salvation into eternal life. Recall that because of the Original Sin of Adam and Eve, sin entered the world. Sin against our infinitely good God separated humanity from Him by an infinite margin. The human race had turned away from God and the seeds of pride, lust, wrathful anger, greed, gluttony, jealousy/envy, and sloth were able to enter the human person and be passed on to following generations. Adam, Eve, and their descendants did not have the power to uproot these evils in themselves and could never repair/mend the infinite harm done as they were merely human themselves. Humanity needed a savior to repair that immense divide from God. Graciously, God so loved the world that He sent His only Begotten Son, Jesus, to redeem us. Jesus was fully God and fully human. Jesus is the human that is infinitely good enough to sacrifice Himself in reparation/expiation of our sins to the Father. It is precisely in Jesus’ humanity while being God that His Most Precious Blood provided reconciliation. I was prepared to attempt to explain the significance behind Jesus shedding His Most Precious Blood on our behalf in July, the month dedicated to His Blood; however, I did not have access to the email portal in time to send out my thoughts on it.

  • Confirmation
    CONFIRMATION December 1, 2020 Dear Parents and Students, You have elected to register your son/daughter for the St. Agnes Christian Formation program this year. When registering your son/daughter it is stated that our Confirmation program is a two-year program. This program challenges him or her to grow in his or her understanding of the Catholic faith and his or her personal relationship with God. There are several points to make you aware of in preparation for Confirmation (which starts in 8th grade with the student receiving the Sacrament with the completion of 9th grade studies) (due to pandemic this school year completion of 10th grade)). Successful completion of the curriculum includes once a month catechesis, service to others, and spending time with God in prayer. The greatest form of prayer is the celebration of the Mass. As Catholics, we are encouraged to attend weekly Mass in order to recognize God’s love more fully in the Word and Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. While the pandemic poses a particular challenge at this time, students and their families are highly encouraged to either attend weekly Mass in person (Precautions are in place to ensure everyone’s safety) or to seek out an online Mass to encourage growth in love for Christ in preparation for Confirmation. Below is a list of other expectations. Remember, these “assignments” are designed to support our students in their desire to know, love, and serve our wonderful God while helping to prepare them for the reception of the Sacrament. This process for being Confirmed in the Spirit is a commitment from the parish, support from parents, and a commitment from the student that wishes to be Confirmed.

SQPN Saint Agatha of Sicily Memorial 5 February Profile We have little reliable information about this martyr, who has been honoured since ancient times, and whose name is included in the canon of the Mass. Young, beautiful and rich, Agatha lived a life consecrated to God. When Decius announced the edicts against Christians, the magistrate Quinctianus tried to profit by Agatha's sanctity; he planned to blackmail her into sex in exchange for not charging her. Handed over to a brothel, she refused to accept customers. After rejecting Quinctianus's advances, she was beaten, imprisoned, tortured, her breasts were crushed and cut off. She told the judge, "Cruel man, have you forgotten your mother and the breast that nourished you, that you dare to mutilate me this way?" One version has it that Saint Peter healed her.

From Pliny to Columella, Domitius Ulpius, Flavius Magnus Aurelius Senator known as Cassiodorus, the Bolognese Pier de’Crescenzi, Andrea Bacci, the marquis Scipione Maffei, Da Persico, the Verona innkeeper Valentino Alberti, Giuseppe Beretta (a member of the Accademia di Agricoltura, who lived in Verona during the frst half of the 19th century), down to Carlo Belviglieri: there has been a continuous fow of praise for this wine. It is surprising that the offcial recognition of the DOCG has not yet come about for this wine, born centuries ago in the Valle d’Alpone and still produced today in a limited area of the same region with the specifc method that is so different from the much more acclaimed “holy wines” from Tuscany or Trentino, etc.
