Dear Brother  Knights,
Please take a moment to review our  upcoming events and  take steps to be PART OF IT!
This  month's Grand Knight's message:
"Blessed are the  merciful, for they shall obtain mercy." Matthew 5:7 
"I ask you, then, to  rediscover the corporal works of mercy: to feed the hungry, give drink to the  thirsty, welcome the stranger…Nor should we overlook the spiritual works of  mercy: to counsel the doubtful, comfort the sorrowful, forgive offences.." Pope Francis Message – XXX1 World Youth Day 2016
