As part of a civic project that has now spanned three consecutive years, Knights of Columbus Council 11575 at Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Church disseminated 72 backpacks to needy children at 3 area schools in Windsor, Severance, and Greeley, Colorado.
On 28 July 2015 Assembly 3124 conducted the annual Installation of Officers Ceremony in Our Lady of the Valley's parish Hall. With more than 35 Sir Knights and ladies in attendance, District Marshal Sir William Fuerstenberger and Faithful Friar, Father Gregg Pedersen, officiated the event. For the third time Sir Knight Robert Young was elected as Faithful Navigator for the Fraternal Year 2015/2016.
On 24 May 2015 the Fourth Degree Knights of Assembly 3124 conducted a Memorial Remembrance Service at Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Church. The Knights Color Gaurd and Honor Gaurd consisted of 17 Knights in regalia, and involved the reading of 41 names of deceased veterans who were relatives of our parishioners. A bugler sounded Taps, followed by the singing of the National Anthem. Additionally pictured is OLV Pastor, Father Gregg, holding the 2015 1st Place Trophy for the Colorado State Patriotic Award given to Our Lady of the Valley for its patriotic ceremony held on 29 June 2014.
On February 15 2015, on behalf of the more than 160 Knights at Our Lady of the Valley Parish, Assembly 3124 presented Pastor Gregg Pedersen with a KofC Chasuble and Stole Set in honor of his recent knighting into the Fourth Degree.
Multiple Knights from Council 11575 came to the aid of Jim Pinkerton to help him move to his Assisted Living facility.
On August 6 and August 12, 2014, Grand Knight Chuck Rohrer, Faithful Navigator Robert Young, and Sir Knight William Fuerstenberger, (also District Marshal of Northern Colorado) of Council 11575 were extremely proud to be able to provide 48 backpacks and school supplies to assist needy school children in our general area. Pictured receiving these items is Donna Bornhoft, principal of St Mary's Catholic Elementary School in Greeley, Colorado.
Michelle Scallon, principal Windsor High School in Windsor, Colorado gratefully acknowledges receipt of backpacks from Sir Knights Rob Young, Chuck Rohrer, and William Fuerstenberger. This project was the council's second annual event of this nature.
Several Brother Knights have seen me use different Catholic apps on my iPhone and have asked what they were. This is by no means all-inclusive and I have no vested interest one way or another in any of these other than being a happy user. These are iPhone-centric and thus available thru iTunes, but I happen to know that many of them are also available for Android phones. In no particular order:
Catholic Mass Times Church Directory (Free)
- When you're on the road and would like to find a local Catholic church, this can help you find it, tells you the mass times and will even link to the church's website (if they have one.) VERY useful and user-friendly.
Laudate (Free)
- Shows daily readings, Catholic calendar, various prayers, and the New American Bible. Very useful to follow-along with readings at mass as well as Bible references.
iPieta ($0.99)
- Shows daily readings, Catholic calendar, various prayers and the Bible. Very similar to "Laudate" but I have noticed that the daily readings are slightly different than what we actually read during mass. I like this calendar better so that's why I keep both apps.
Magnificat (Free)
- Day by day readings and prayers. You can buy a monthly subscription a month at a time for $1.99. If you get the paper copy of the Magnificat, then you get the electronic version for free.
iBreviary (Free)
- Daily missal, prayeres, rituals for sacraments; offers much of this in a multi-lingual format. Great Catholic reference.
Pope App (Free)
- Official sanctioned app from the Vatican. Presents Vactian media publications, Papal events, photos, videos, texts. Also shows the Holy Father's Papal calendar, live streaming of Papal events, and texts of homilies and speaches.
As you can see, several of these have significant overlap, but some have better user-friendly features than others. Since most are free, the only downside to having all of them is available space on your phone. Be careful of that since several of them store quite a bit of text (e.g. the entire Bible, etc.) but the upside is that this is immediately available for use even without a WiFi connection. If you have any questions, feel free to email me or catch me at a meeting. -- Mike Myshatyn
