CHAPLAIN’S MESSAGE
“Almost” Summer 2025
Dear Brother Knights,
It’s almost Summer, and our church celebrates this time of year with First Holy Communions, Confirmations, It’s a busy time for many of us. Soon we will be helping provide food for the Concerts at Veteran’s Park. As Knights, we are never sitting around.
Our Supreme Knight Patrick E. Kelly in his message says: “We should ask ourselves: Can we do more to help our parish and our pastor? Can we turn off the noise from the social media and news outlets and turn toward the voice of Christ in silent prayer? Can we offer a rosary for the health of our marriage and our family or devote an hour to Eucharist Adoration for the strength of our priests, our bishops and the pope? Prayer from the heart, far more than criticism, has real power to change things.”
Our Supreme Knight has the right idea. There are always opportunities to grow, do new things, and to simply pray the Rosary or offer an hour of Adoration to Jesus to help us get through life. I know we can find the time if we try. Whether helping out at the concerts, helping clean out a trailer or even cook a meal for the homeless in the parish community, we can find a way; I know we can do it!
So as we participate in the spring rituals, take care of our homes, our boats and tend our gardens, may we always be there for our God and our families who need us as a shining example of what the Lord wants for us.
Take care and may the Lord shine the way for us this coming summer!
Deacon Bob

Prayer for the Canonization of
Father Michael J. McGivney
God, our Father, protector of the poor and
defender of the widow and orphan, you called
your priest, Father Michael J. McGivney, to
be an apostle of Christian family life and to
lead the young to the generous service of their
neighbor. Through the example of his life and
virtue may we follow your Son, Jesus Christ,
more closely, fulfilling his commandment of
charity and building up his Body which is the
Church. Let the inspiration of your servant
prompt us to greater confidence in your love
so that we may continue his work of caring
for the needy and the outcast. We humbly
ask that you glorify your venerable servant
Father Michael J. McGivney on earth
according to the design of your holy will.
Through his intercession, grant the favor I
now present (here make your request).
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our Father Hail Mary Glory be to the Father
