August 2017

Welcome Brother Knights,

What a great time to be a Knight!  As our new year begins, our emphasis on "Building the Domestic Church" requires spiritual leadership in our families and councils. This is the time to plan the direction of your council. http://www.kofc.org/un/en/domestic-church/index.html  

The Knights of Columbus are committed to the weapon of the Church - the rosary!  This year is the 100th anniversary of the apparitions of our Lady of Fatima, celebrated throughout the world. Her strongest message was and still is to pray the rosary every day in order to obtain peace in the world, conversion of sinners, and reparation of our own offenses. The Rosary is the foundation on which the Knights of Columbus are built.

A family Rosary program is our newest addition of a "Building The Domestic Church" activity. It is Supreme's and our goal to encourage every council throughout the state to pray the rosary as often as possible. District Deputies will be asking your councils to participate in the "Family Rosary Program".

The state of Indiana is having a monthly Rosary challenge starting in August, by the 10th of the following month (so for August email by Sept.10th) the district deputies will e-mail the Church Director the number of Rosaries each council led and prayed - This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. The council and District that is responsible for the highest number that month will be recognized in our monthly newsletter and rewarded. The numbers will be accumulated by council and district with a total for the year. Questions??  Just ask!

Can you imagine reporting the Indiana Knights of Columbus prayed over a million Rosaries?  Be a prayerful knight that leads to holiness.

Christ lives through us,

Mark Michuda
