Grand Knight’s Message
Brothers, Families, and Friends of Council 367,
The Admissions Degree in the Knights of Columbus
is like a Sacrament in the Church. Although technically not
the same and certainly not sanctioned as such, a candidate's
completion of the Admissions Degree should be thought of as
having as much import on his spiritual and religious
development as does the conferring of one of the Sacraments
in the Catholic Church itself. I believe it's critically important
to think of it that way. Doing so puts the proper perspective
on everything we stand for and should be doing as Knights.
One of the characteristics of a sacrament that is
celebrated in the Catholic Church is that it is a visible rite.
That means that the sacrament is conducted in public in front
of the parishioners. Another characteristic is that a sacrament
is conferred by the priest who has been divinely vested with
the authority to do so. Only he can confer the sacrament upon
the uninitiated.
See Grand Knight’s Message, Page 3

Knight of the Month
The Knight of the Month is a Brother that
exemplifies the passion for a program that we all need to have.
He has single handedly directed the Council's life programs
this fraternal year. He spearheaded the 40 Days for Life
Prayer Vigil initiative and led us on our first ever abortion
clinic protest. His inspirational leadership was key to
amassing the most Knights for a prayer vigil that the Council
has ever had. He recently represented the Council at a regional
right to life conference. He is also leading the planning effort
for the national Match for Life.
As a parish Round Table Coordinator, he led a
highly successful religious education breakfast event that
yielded several prospects for the Council. Finally, this Knight
has stepped up to accept a leadership position in the Fourth
Degree. He is an outstanding example of a Knight.
Congratulations to Peter Laurin on his selection as the
October Knight of the Month.
Vivat Jesus,
Dan
Grand Knight’s Message, from Page 1
Finally, the completion of a sacrament typically
involves some sort of verbal or physical affirmation from the
conferee. All of those factors make a sacrament a mystical
channel of divine grace. The receiver of the sacrament is
forever changed at the completion of the ceremony. A very
similar thing takes place in the Knights of Columbus during
an Admissions Degree. Think about our ceremonials.
Every sacrament involves visible and invisible
realities. The invisible part of it is God's gift to redeem us
through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ via the Holy
Spirit. It is because of this divine grace that we get directly
from God that we derive the commission that we have spoken
about previously. Because of that commission, we are
empowered and even required to act on behalf of God. It is a
powerful concept. But without the visible part, it is
meaningless.
The visible part of the sacrament is all about the
conferee. More correctly, it is about action as manifested in
our lives on a daily basis. Our response to the invisible gift of
God's grace through the conferring of the sacrament is how
we are measured individually as Knights and as a group in the
Council. Because God is sharing his holiness with us through
the sacrament, we must also share it with others. We do that
through our foremost principle: charity.
Most sacraments are received only once. Others are
not. Those that are not, require ongoing action and active
participation by the conferee in order to foster actual living of
the faith. As Saint Matthew so famously said: Faith without
action is dead. The conferring of a sacrament is designed to
spiritually nourish the celebrant such that he is imbued with
the Holy Spirit to an extraordinary extent that he will want to
show his love of God by helping others through action. Doing
anything less is essentially ignoring the will of God.
The beauty of the Knights of Columbus is that
through the "sacrament" of the Admissions Degree, a Brother
has the ability to put his faith into action immediately and
constantly. He is able to prove his holiness and make the
world holier. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy. By
demonstrating holiness through acts of charity coupled with
humility, a Knight will surely reap the benefit of receiving the
grace of God and thus growing his faith. Demonstrating
charity, giving worship to God, and building up the body of
Christ will cause you to grow your faith. That is concept is
implicit in our mission statement. It doesn't get much better.
As good Catholic gentlemen, each of us Knights
must demonstrate our faith in our daily lives. Our various and
numerous programs, fundraising efforts, and works of charity
enable us to easily exemplify the fulfillment of the sacrament
that has been bestowed on us during the Admissions
Degree. However, it is up to each of us to make it happen. I
would encourage all of you to get involved in Council
activities so that you can fulfill God's will for you. Remember:
Active Knights Stay Knights. The corollary is this: Active
Knights are more faith filled Knights. Let that be you.
Vivat Jesus,
Dan Doyle
Family of the Month
Our Family of the Month is from Sacred Heart
Church. He was instrumental in forming “That Man Is You”
men's group five years ago. Each Saturday morning about 30
men meet for breakfast, to watch a video presentation, and
then discuss ways to be better men of God. He has steadfastly
shepherded the men as they learn ways to be better leaders,
husbands, and fathers for their families. He has also been a
youth leader and chaperone for the past two National Catholic
Youth Conferences (NCYC). He is a confirmation sponsor
for parish youth and has been a member of the 125th
Anniversary Committee that organized events for the parish's
celebrations this past year.
His wife will be a chaperone for the 2019 NCYC.
She also prepares the weekly sides for the TV in the
commons. Their daughter has attended NCYC and is a youth
council leader. Their son has also attended sessions for
confirmation and assists with the soup kitchen at the
parish. This family serves as a great model of servant
leadership and involvement for our parish. Congratulations
to Kevin, Kelly, Ashby & Seth Larkin as the October
Family of the Month!

Columbus Club Report
Brothers, Families, and Friends,
Save the Date:
Saturday November 16, 2019, is our annual Council
367/ Columbus Club work day, at our Council home. Mark
your calendars and plan to join us for our annual fall cleanup
starting at 0800.
We will need to scrape and paint the exterior stairs in
the back; install a new ceiling light in the CC office. We will
also be planting bushes to replace those that died this summer
in the front of the building. The Sherriff’s work team will be
there again this year to help clean up the leaves and grounds.
Booze Lockers:
As some of you know, we rent lockers to members for
the storage of member’s liquor bottles, for their personal use in
the lounge. We are updating our inventory confirming usage of
individual lockers. We can’t identify the users of the
following lockers. A-11; A-18; A-23;A-26;A-30; B-5;B-
6;B-10;B-18;B-19;B-20;B-22;B-24;B-25;B-26B-30
If you have the key and are still using these lockers
please contact me or PGK John Person so we can update the
records or empty out abandoned lockers.
Maintenance and Improvement Work.
Unfortunately, after trying minimal repairs, we
eventually had to replace the A/C unit is the lounge. We also
had to fix a leak in the sink in the Past Grand Knights Bar. We
are tracking other leaks to cut water waste.
There is a list posted in the Lounge of other pending
work items. We need someone to help with a few electrical
installations and maintenance items. If you have some skills in
this area we could use some help installing lights and moving
a ceiling fan. A list of needed maintenance items is posted on
the closet door in the Lounge. If you can help, please contact
me or House Committee Members: Squad or Napoleon.
Mortgage.
We paid off our mortgage this month. We are forever
grateful for the help of Brother Sir Knight Rich Mozelewski
who was instrumental in obtaining and guaranteeing this loan
for us. He contributed many things to Council 367 and the CC
over the years. We are deeply saddened by his recent death. He
will be missed.
Thank you to all of you that contribute time treasure
and talent to help us keep the Council 367 home operating and
maintained.
Vivat Jesus,
Tom Horsch,
Columbus Club President
