K of C Council 3956 March 2022 Newsletter

To my friends of the Knights of Columbus,
 
“I Got This!”
 
That was the message I received as I prayed to God for healing and guidance.
 
Since our last newsletter, actually in the last few days, we have experienced the ultimate highs and lows in life. On March 17th, we were blessed with a healthy newborn grandson. The next day we were faced with the challenge of our own life. God has our back and through his love and mercy, we must trust in him that brighter days are ahead. Please pray for us and for each other.
 
God Bless,
 
Anthony (Tony) Chirco

My brother Knights and Friends,

As COVID took its latest swipe on many of us, we find ourselves recovering to a new enlightenment. We are not invincible and we need each other to help each other through the challenges we face. I was not alone. My wife got it as did Worthy District Deputy Ray Bilyk and his wife Jennifer. There are many more of us who have been through this. Keep each other in prayer! We are back and ready for the challenges.

I hope to see many of you at the numerous social events coming up as we have detailed for you in this newsletter.

Remember your Valentine!!!

Happy New Year!

I have a feeling. A good feeling. Although it’s cold outside and the latest Covid variant is raging, there’s definitely signs of great hope in the new year. Hope is a very positive and powerful emotion. When we embrace it and give it energy, we grow not only for ourselves, but for the benefit of those who need us.

I encourage you to read the newsletter and find within it hope for yourself.  The theme for this month is fellowship. We quote “Many Hands Make Light Work”. Working together, we have fun and accomplish God’s plan for us.

Welcome to the New Year. Embrace the hope and give it energy.

God Blessing to you and all those you love.

Brother Knights and Friends,

I hope and pray you and your family are enjoying this Christmas season in peace and good health. Our good friend Deacon Chuck has recovered from COVID with a spirited message of preparedness in this month’s newsletter. New members have joined in the messaging. Please take the time to learn and enjoy all that we are doing here in the community of St. Pius X parish. As we look ahead, we will be partnering once again with our great school in a “Keep Christ in Christmas” Poster competition, a Spelling Bee and a Free Throw competition.

Please be safe and come to our next meeting on January 5th in the Social Hall beginning with refreshments at 6:00 pm. Make becoming more involved in your K of C a part of your News Year’s resolution of self improvement.

Merry Christmas and blessing for a Happy New Year!

We are approaching the holiday season and indeed, there are a multitude of reasons to be thankful. We have the love of God, family and friends, and the fellowship of our Brother Knights.
