Letters from our Grand Knight
Brother Knights, I hope your new year is off to a great start. If you’re struggling to think of a good resolution, try stopping by the church for a few minutes extra one day a week. Gradually increase that to 5 minutes, then 10. Maybe attend daily Mass once a week. There are numerous opportunities throughout Lincoln to attend […]
Brother Knights, Well here we are, the second week of Advent! Boy time flies. Soon it will be Christmas and the new year upon us. This coming Sunday is Candy Cane Sunday and we could use men to post the exits at church and collect donations/pass out candy canes. No verbal exchange is necessary (you don’t have to […]
Brother Knights, It’s that time of year again. Football is in full swing, the Holidays are coming fast and the leaves are falling slow. There is a lot on our calendar the next two months. Candy Cane Sunday will be Dec. 15th after all Masses. Easy peasy, we just need men to stand at the exits handing out candy canes […]
Brother Knights, Service and Community Involvement Traditionally, as a contractor, I would know that if I had trenching or backhoeing to do for a job, I would try to have it complete by Oct. 1st knowing that the weather outside could change any day. After that, it’s a Russel Stover time of year. You never know what […]
Brother Knights, Vivat Jesus my Brother Knights! I am not a fan of Latin by any means. It’s considered a dead language. What does that mean? When a language is no longer spoken by a group of people as their native tongue. Nevertheless, our Catholic Church is full of Latin. In this case, Vivat Jesus means May Jesus Live or Jesus […]
Brother Knights, By the time you read this, the new school year will be underway already. Where does the time go? We pulled off an amazing Jayhawk Jumpstart this year! We fed 500 hungry kids and parents. All we had left over was a few hot dogs. This is a time for fun and being social. This is becoming a fantastic […]
Brother Knights, Right now it’s 95 degrees outside and it feels like the humidity couldn’t get any higher! Summer in Nebraska. I’ll take it. I love having four seasons (at least that is what I tell folks). It’s been a busy month not just for me but the Knights too. We just finished our second […]
Brother Knights, This will be my final newsletter article as your Grand Knight. Thank you for allowing me to lead this great organization these past 2 years. I hope I have served you well and honorably. We have accomplished many great things these last two years and this is because of the dedication and commitment […]
Brother Knights, Here we are diving into the month of May! Spring brings us so many wonderful things. Our parish has had the first communion celebrations, confirmation is in the next few weeks, we have beautiful flowers and trees blooming (along with allergies)….it is just a time of new beginnings! I recently attended the Knights […]
Happy Spring Brother Knights! Here we are already into April. Hard to believe how quickly the Lenten season went, along with our fish frys. What a VERY SUCCESSFUL fish fry season it was for our council. I am not sure if you were able to read our FS Tony Schafers recaps every week, but we […]
