Hi, my name is Richard Zeitler and I would like to introduce you to the Eucharistic Ministry here at the Church of the Magdalen. As Knights of Columbus Brother's, I would like to share with you an excerpt from the Columbia magazine written by: Cardinal Jan P. Shotte " It has been said - and I am convinced that this is true - that the Knights of Columbus is the strong right arm of the Church and its members are the pillars of many Catholic parishes. I also know this to be true: that the Knights of Columbus are the most ardent defenders and helpers of priests. To continue to be all this, you also must be, in your councils and in your personal lives, truly eucharistic people and promoters of eucharistic devotion. The holy Eucharist defines our Catholic identity. Build, therefore, your fraternal activities and your volunteer programs around the Eucharist. Be examples and models of faithful attendance at Sunday Mass in your parishes. Participate and promote eucharistic adoration, holy hours and frequent visits to Christ in the tabernacles of your churches". |
