My dear fellow Knights,
I have to admit that I am a sucker for Christmas. There is so much that I like about the preparation for the celebrations: the shopping, the decorations and the warm atmosphere amongst people including strangers, but nothing can beat Midnight Mass and the wonderful liturgy.
In these uncertain times, may the peace of the Christ child be yours this Christmas. From Caroline and myself to you and your family, may I wish you a peaceful, happy and holy Christmas and look forward with hope to 2021.
After years of devotion and prayers, the cause for the beatification of Father McGivney, the founder of the Knights of Columbus, has reached a significant milestone. On Saturday, Oct. 31st 2020, Fr. McGivney was officially declared Blessed by the Catholic Church.
I am delighted to hear this wonderful news, not only for the Knights of Columbus, but the whole International Alliance of Catholic Knights, that Fr Michael McGivney is to be beatified later this year.
