Classes will resume Wednesday, January 8. Give Jesus a gift; go to Mass. Our Grade 3 students now have a Catechist. We are grateful to those generous parishioners who volunteer their time weekly to teach our children about our loving God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are answering Jesus’ call to “Let the children come to me.” Mt. 19:14 Diocesan Policy is that no adult is to be alone with children. We are still in need of Class room Aids. Long Beach Catholic Regional School Principal’s Updates ~Third Week of Advent~ O God, see how your people faithfully await the feast of the Lord’s Nativity, enable us, we pray, to attain the joys of so great a salvation, and to celebrate them always with solemn worship and glad rejoicing. As we enter the third week of Advent, the students will continue to reach out to those in need. It is wonderful to see how our Hat and Mitten tree, located in our lobby is filling up with donated items. The week ahead is filled with so many opportunities for the students to share our faith during this Advent Season. We start off with our weekly Advent Prayer service with all the students, first thing Monday morning. That night we enjoy listening to our Band members and then to the voices of our students in Grades 2-5.

  • SOSJ SJ Inner Workings 01 Post-Nominals (2) Revised Nov 17
    Title: Deciphering Post-Nominal Letters Our Sovereign Order has a long and wonderful history and many traditions that reflect that history. These sometimes can be opaque to us today, and so from time to time it is helpful to review these “inner workings” to broaden the understanding among our members of how and why we do things. The letters after a person’s name tell us something about the person’s status and achievements within our Sovereign Order. To decipher this code, we need to be clear about three different elements of a person’s status within the order: 1) Type of membership 2) Rank and grade 3) Honours awarded. Types of Membership Our Constitution and Rules provide for three types of membership: 1) Dames and Knights – full members with voting rights, minimum age of 23 2) Demoiselles and Squires – full members without voting rights, minimum age of 18 3) Donats – employees or others serving the Sovereign Order being so honored. The third category is rarely used but provides a means by which a person who has faithfully served our Sovereign Order may be “admitted into the Order” while “not being admitted to full Membership.” Donats are not awarded post-nominal letters, and they needn’t be Christian so long as they have served faithfully and are deemed deserving of special recognition. Demoiselles and Squires are full members of our Sovereign Order. They are not awarded post-nominal letters but may hold offices of trust, though these usually will be at the Commandery level. They are eligible for promotion to Dame or Knight upon reaching the requisite age but, like all promotions, this must be earned by service and is adjudicated by the normal promotion assessment process.
