In thanksgiving for the leadership of our Bishops, Priests and Clergy in standing up for and teaching the Truth For our Country and its leaders - especially the "pro-choice" Catholics that they see the truth. For the Christians around the world who are being persecuted and murdered because of their faith in Jesus Christ. For our military who protect our freedom. For our veterans who have served to protect our freedom. Message from Church Director Ed Leal True Contentment The world bombards us with messages telling us we need more money, more luxuries, more things. How can we escape the grip of

7 our desires? Turn to Jesus. He offers a peace and contentment the world can never bring. You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in the Lord. - Isaiah 26:3 GOOD OF THE ORDER Lecturer - Jack Zwit LEADERSHIP "God calls, and that's what we see in the vocation of the great leaders. In our tradition, a mission always starts with a calling." Pope Francis, On Heaven and Earth. A grand knight is elected to provide leadership to the council Through his example of faith, charity and good judgment, the Grand Knight provides the model for council members to follow. Through his leadership, a tone is set up that is open and engaging, that ensures our council's growth in charitable outreach and membership He builds a team atmosphere among members by helping them feel that their opinions and services are valued. Membership growth is essential to the success of our Order. With the addition of each new member, our council is better able to serve our parish, community and our Order. Also, when we offer a man membership in our council, we're giving him the opportunity to grow in his faith through service to God and his neighbor. Each member also gains access to our exclusive, top-rated insurance, providing protection for his family. KofC Council #759 has many tools available for communicating our council's news, initiatives and goals to fellow Knights. We have a website, blasts and a council newsletter, thank you Brother Bob. Our newsletter is very informative about what's going on today, next week and the months ahead. It is a great place to find activities, programs and services that a brother knight would be interested in for himself, and the good of the order. The achievements of any organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual. All work that is worth anything is done in faith. The strength of a team can be seen in the strength of it's leader.

8 All of the above is what makes a council a council. And Brothers, we have a great one. Almighty God, Look upon our assembly of Knights and fill us with the spirit of your wisdom. May we always act in accordance with your will, and may our bonds as brothers deepen as we journey toward you in faith, for your greater honor and glory. Amen.
