Chaplain April 2025

Dear Brother Knights, During this upcoming Holy Week, we reflect on all that the Lord does to entice us to receive his love. Jesus endured the mockery and embarrassment of those around him. He had a faux crown made of thorns beaten into his head, and a sarcastic sign on his cross that read “Jesus […]

Dear Brother Knights, We are amid the holiest time in the Church’s liturgical year. It’s a time where God wants to do great things in us. We know very well that within the season of Lent, we take on greater prayer, fasting, and almsgiving to make room for the Lord to do these great things […]

Chaplain April 2024

Dear Brother Knights, He is risen! Alleluia! Easter is the greatest celebration in the Church because it is the greatest event in the history of the world. The fact that Jesus resurrected from the dead changes everything. Our greatest fear, our death, has been put to death by Jesus. Through Jesus’ resurrection, God has power […]

Chaplain March 2024

Brother Knights, As a lifelong baseball fan, there’s always a news report that is music to my ears: “pitchers and catchers report to spring training.” In the midst of the cold winter, the occasional snow showers and just some of the wintertime blues that we might feel, these are welcome words. Springtime is coming; they […]
