Who Are These Men Called Knights?
Who Are These Men Called Knights?
• I am the person sitting next to you, in front of you or in back of you at Mass. I greet you when you arrive, read you scripture, give you communion and lead you in song.
• I sit on the Parish Council, the finance and other committees, advising our Pastor and planning for our future.
• I buy, prepare and serve you breakfast once a month, and then clean up after you. I serve your children those great tasting donuts after Mass.
• I plan and execute many of the events that make our Parish a vibrant community – Beer and Brats, Spaghetti Dinners, Lenten Fish Fries.
• I sell earth friendly coffee, burritos and peaches after Mass to raise funds.
• I sponsor youth activities like a free throw contest, soccer shoot and financial planning. I also give out scholarships to deserving youths.
• I am there with your family at the “take your dad to the ballgame”, or a family hike, or the annual Christmas party.
• I assist you in parking at Christmas and Easter so that you arrive on time and leave on time.
• I clean up a highway.
• I serve lunch to the homeless at the Denver Rescue Mission and provide Thanksgiving baskets to those that cannot afford a Thanksgiving meal.
• I donate funds to the Alternatives Pregnancy Center, Father Woody’s and other charitable organizations as money becomes available.
• I pray for life in the Rosary and at special Masses, that the unborn will live to be born.
• I assist and support our Clergy and young men in the seminary.
I am everywhere. Wherever you look and whatever you do, there I am working alongside of you, doing what is best and good for everyone. My focus is on Church, Community, Family, Youth, Council and Membership and I stand for Charity, Unity, Fraternity and Patriotism.

Baptism Rose Program
Our own past Grand Knight Ron Gerber has worked with Fr. Jim to institute a new program in the parish. Ron is presenting Roses to all of the Baptismal Mothers. So far Ron has been hitting all of the Baptisms but he is looking for interested knights who would be willing to assist.
May 2014 Grand Knight Message
There is nothing like spring in Colorado. Beautiful warm days, cool nights bring trails filled with runners, walkers and bikers outside to enjoy the scenery. Spring also brings the Knights of Columbus Colorado State Convention. This year’s event was held in Keystone and this is the 3rd one that I have attended along with making one brief appearance at Supreme’s National Convention.
State Chaplain Fr. Brad Noonan started us off with a nice presentation that began with a quote from Pope John XXIII – “Don’t get pushed by your problems, Focus on your dreams”.
The weekend was filled with Resolutions of thanks to our clergy, state officers, Supreme, ladies auxiliaries, degree teams, the deceased and the like. The Tootsie Roll Drive has a new name. It is to be known as the “Campaign for People with Intellectual Disabilities”.
I was able to make two nominations at the convention. The first one was to nominate our council to host the State Soccer Tournament. The second nomination was much bigger. I had the honor and privilege to Nominate Jon Herskovits to serve a second year as State Warden. That was really cool.
During the report of our District Deputy to the convention, he specifically mentioned the 3,000 pounds of food that our council organized and donated to the Denver Rescue Mission during 40 Cans for Lent.
Our council won 4 awards, Surge with Service, Shining Knight Award and this year we bounced up to the division with the largest councils in the state. And we still won 2ND PLACE. Roger Giudici won an award for his work in the 4th Degree. These awards are a statement on the wonderful work that all of you do for your church, family, community, youth, culture of life and council.
Thank you again for all that you do, Mother’s Day will be filled with Spaghetti, Roses for Mom’s and packages of lily seeds passed out to Moms on Mother’s Day. And A Rose for Motherhood is another new program we have.
