Saturday 6/7 Meeting - Email from Steve G

Just a short note about our June 7 meeting in connection with our continued study of the Doctors of the Church. I’ll be discussing the first five Doctors in Pope Benedict‘s book who are: Saint Athanasius of Alexandria, Saint Ephrem, Saint Hilary of Poitiers, Saint Cyril of Jerusalem and Saint Basil.

Pope Benedict‘s book is difficult to acquire, there is also a book called “The 35 Doctors of the Church” by Fr. Christopher Rengers and Dr. Matthew Bunson, that I think some folks may have picked up. The chapters are quite a bit longer than Pope Benedict’s book and so doing five of the doctors may be a bit long, so maybe we can discuss in the meeting how we will manage the pace going forward.

One thing to note about the Rengers and Bunson book — in that one Saint Basil is the sixth chapter, not the fifth. (Of course, we also can rely on that infallible source, Captain Google, to come up with some basic biographical backgrounds, if needed.)

At all events, I think the lives of these great Saints are packed with drama and inspiration, so I’m looking forward to discussing them!

Please feel free to pass these notes along to the rest of the guys.

Best

Steve

PRC Walk for Life Fundraiser

Email from Mike K:

Brothers and Others,

Carol and I will be participating in the Pregnancy Resource Center’s Walk for Life on Saturday, May 3, from 10:00 a.m. at Deep Run Park.  Please plan to bring your family and friends to walk with us for this worthy cause ( it’s a nice and easy one mile walk through the park, followed by the opportunity to enjoy a delicious hot dog lunch prepared by the brothers of Council 395 😃).

In the meantime, please visit the link below to donate to our team. I registered as a walker under the team name of Knights of Columbus.  Full disclosure, making certain milestones results in certain awards ( I.e. a tee-shirt, etc. ), so feel free to sign up as a walker yourself if you are so motivated!  In any event, the Carol and I would love to have you walk with us.  Should you have a reason you cannot participate in the event, we of course encourage you to still make a donation to support our Knights of Columbus team effort.
