The Knight Courier August 2021 The Knight Courier The official newsletter of Knights of Columbus, Fourth Degree Saint Francis Caracciolo Assembly 3697 510 St. James Avenue Goose Creek, South Carolina 29445 Volume 6 Issue 2 August 2021 A Prayer for Protection in the Time of Pandemic “O Mary, you always brighten our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who, at the Cross took part in Jesus’ pain while remaining steadfast in faith. O loving Mother, you know what we need and we are confident you will provide for us as at Cana in Galilee. Intercede for us with your Son Jesus, the Divine Physician for those who have fallen ill, for those who are vulnerable, and for those who have died, Intercede also for those charged with protecting the health and safety of others and for those who are tending to the sick and seeking a cure. Help us, O Mother of Divine Love, to confirm to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who took upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows, so as to lead us, though the Cross, to the glory of the Resurrection. Amen! Under thy protection we seek refuge, O Holy Mother of God. In our needs despise not our petitions, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.” Adapted from the Prayer of Pope Francis, published through the Knights of Columbus This Prayer should be said daily, and don’t forget the Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy.

  • 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.

  • For the Zeal of Thy House Hath Eaten Me Up. (Ps. 72: 1) How Good
    JUNE 4, ST. FRANCIS CARACCIOLO, CONFESSOR Errors? [email protected] St. Francis Caracciolo, born in the kingdom of Naples; was one of the founders of the Order of Clerks Regular, who in turn watched in perpetual adoration before the Blessed Sacrament. His short life of forty years was profitable in the sight of God. He edified by his holy life, not only Naples and Rome, but also distant Spain. He died on June 4, 1608, and was canonized by Pope Pius VII. INTROIT Psalms 21: 1, 5; 68: 10 Factum est cor meum tamquam cera My heart is become like wax melting in liquéscens in médio ventris mei: the midst of my bowels: for the zeal of quóniam zelus domus tuæ comédit me. Thy house hath eaten me up. (Ps. 72: (Ps. 72: 1) Quam bonus Israël Deus: 1) How good is God to Isrǽl: to them his, qui recto sunt corde. Glória Patri et that are of a right heart. Glory be to the Fílio et Spíritui Sancto, sicut erat in Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. Factum est now, and ever shall be, world without cor meum tamquam cera liquéscens in end. Amen. My heart is become like médio ventris mei: quóniam zelus wax melting in the midst of my bowels: domus tuæ comédit me. for the zeal of Thy house hath eaten me up. COLLECT Deus, qui beátum Francíscum, novi O God, Who didst adorn blessed órdinis institutórem, orándi stúdio et Francis, as the founder of a new order, pœniténtiæ amóre decorásti: da with the spirit of prayer and the love of fámulis tuis in ejus imitatióne ita penance, grant Thy servants to make profícere; ut, semper orántes et corpus such progress in imitating him that, by in servitútem redigéntes, ad cæléstem prayer without ceasing, and by bringing glóriam perveníre mereántur.

  • Ite Missa
    THE LOGO The grey letters stand for the worldwide fraternal society which is subordinate to the Catholic Faith and the content of all publications. The content - the Faith and the patron saint - is more important than the fraternal society. The logo becomes more easily readable due to the difference in grey tones. The black letters stand for the organization itself. The design seeks to express something of the organization’s core values, showing ourselves fully “in the light”. Ite Missa Est Co-Redemptrix CONTENTS | < PREVIOUS PAGE | NEXT PAGE > FSSPX MANUAL | page 6 1 May - June 2020 Newsletter of the SSPX in Great Britain and Scandinavia The increasing ambiguity and mystery of each succes- sive theological paradigm indicates that they are less an attempt to better illuminate man’s path to his beatitude, and more an exercise in theological violence to bend the Church to a new purpose. THE SHADOW The icon’s shadow gives us a strong, yet subtle corporate element. The two hearts now have a light shadow, fitting into the spacious lay-out. There is recognition, but with a light touch.

  • Roman Martyrology by Month
    www.boston-catholic-journal.com Roman Martyrology by Month 1916 Edition January February March April May June July August September October November December The following is the complete text of the Roman Martyrology circa 1900 A.D. Many more Saints and Martyrs have since been entered into this calendar commemorating the heroic faith, the holy deeds, the exemplary lives, and in many cases the glorious deaths of these Milites Christi, or Soldiers of Christ, who gave 1 every fiber of their being to God for His glory, for the sanctification of His Holy Catholic Church, for the conversion of sinners both at home and in partibus infidelium 1, for the salvation of souls, and for the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, even as He had last commanded His holy Apostles: “Euntes ergo docete omnes gentes: baptizantes eos in nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Docentes eos servare omnia quæcumque mandavi vobis.” “Going therefore, teach all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.” (St. Matthew 28.19-20) While the Martyrology presented is complete, it nevertheless does not present us with great detail concerning the lives of those whose names are forever indited within it, still less the complete circumstances surrounding and leading up to their martyrdom. For greater detail of their lives, the sources now available on the Internet are extensive and we encourage you to explore them.2 As it stands, the Martyrology is eminently suited to a brief daily reflection that will inspire us to greater fervor, even to imitate these conspicuously holy men and women in whatever measure our own state in life affords us through the grace and providence of Almighty God.
