On Wednesday, October 25th at 7:00 pm Father Colavito will be saying a Mass for Life at Holy Cross Academy.  After the Mass, weather permitting, we will all proceed outside for a candlelight procession to the statue of the Blessed Mother to end the night with some prayers and hymns for her intercession.

There will be a collection at Mass with the proceeds used to pay for 40 students to take part in the March for Life in January in Washington, DC. 

Father has a number of advertisements is Burlington County church bulletins and other marketing efforts underway to build awareness for this event. WE need to begin getting the word out NOW in order to ensure maximum attendance. 

For those of you would could not attend the Blue Mass at HCA is was a tremendous success. We as Knights need to provide Father our full support to assist in building the attendance at this Mass. Our Council should be the best represented at the Mass. Please make every effort to assist and attend.

The following is from the Supreme Knight Carl Andersen. I believe this is a key message for Council 7755 as well all Knights worldwide.

On November 20th, Supreme Knight Carl Anderson announced that, through the Order’s wide-reaching new Domestic Church initiative, Knights and their families will have greater opportunities to participate in a variety of activities that promote the New Evangelization, strengthen our parishes and grow the Order.
 

Building the Domestic Church

Knights of Columbus has always been an organization dedicated to the well-being and support of Catholic family life. The family is the first and primary place where we experience and are formed in our Catholic faith. By building upon our current programs and activities, the Knights of Columbus continues to promote the family as a ”domestic church” where husbands and wives, parent and children, grow in their knowledge and practice of the Catholic Faith. In order to perform its important mission of evangelization, each family needs to find support in the sacramental life of the parish.
 

Strengthening our Parishes

Knights of Columbus councils have always responded to the most urgent needs of the Church, particularly through charitable and social outreach. In order to support the evangelization of family life today, our councils must be even more fully integrated into our parishes. As the world’s largest Catholic fraternal and family organization, we have a responsibility to dedicate our time, talent and resources to ensuring that our parishes our beacons of the new evangelization.
