Remembrance day -a tribute and : prayer for troops

Least we forget

 

It is coming to that time of year when we honour our troops past and present.  They have and do put themselves in harms way so that we may live free.

Please take a moment to read and say a prayer for all troops from different countries fighting for freedom.

 

     
  
LOVE  & PEACE  IN 2013



I  AM HONOURED TO DO THIS

  


  I   AM  HONOURED TO DO  THIS!!
Did   you know that the ACLU  has filed a suit to  have all  military cross-shaped headstones  removed.   





And   another suit to end  prayer from the  military completely.  They're making  great  progress. The Navy Chaplains can  no  longer mention Jesus' name in   prayer thanks to the  wretched ACLU and our  new administration.   

 

Let   us pray...  

Prayer  

 

 

 Prayer:  

'Lord   Jesus, hold  our troops in your loving  hands Protect them  as they protect us  bless them and their families for the   selfless acts they perform  for us in our  time of need.   Amen.'

 

These  Colours Don't Run

Prayer   Request:  When you  receive this,  please stop for a moment and say  a prayer  for our troops around the world.
There is  nothing  attached. Of all  the  gifts you could give a Marine,  Soldier, Sailor, Pilots,  & others  deployed in harm's way, prayer is the very   best one.

GOD   BLESS YOU FOR SAYING THE PRAYER AND PASSING  IT  ON!

Make an emergency preparedness kit

To  meet your needs at home or if evacuating

The Red Cross recommends that you keep a disaster preparedness kit in your home with enough supplies to meet your family's needs for at least 72 hours. By taking some time now to store emergency food, water and other supplies, you can provide for your entire family.

Store these supplies together in sturdy, easy-to-carry containers such as suitcases on wheels or backpacks in case you need to evacuate your home:

• Water: During an emergency, tap water can become polluted or supply may be cut off. Store two litres of drinking water and two litres of water for washing per person, per day, keeping a 72 hour supply on hand for your family and any pets. Listen to public announcements about treating the water in your area after a disaster. Once per year, make use of your water supply and add fresh water to your kit.
• Food: Store at least a 72 hour supply of non-perishable food for each person. Select foods that are compact and lightweight, non-perishable and require no refrigeration, cooking, preparation or added water. Once per year, check the expiration dates of your food items. Ensure that there is enough for each member of your family.
• Manual can opener
• Crank or battery-operated flashlight, with extra batteries
• Crank or battery-operated radio, with extra batteries
• Extra keys, for house and car
• First aid kit
• Cash in small bills
• Special needs items - medications, baby formula and diapers, and equipment for people with disabilities. Learn more about plans for people with disabilities.
• Copy of your emergency plan

Additional items to consider

• Change of clothing and footwear for each person
• Sleeping bag or warm blanket for each person
• Pet food and pet medication
• Garbage bags and twist ties
• Toilet paper
• Multi-tool or basic tools (hammer, wrench, screwdriver, etc.)
• Duct tape
• Plastic sheeting
• Scissors or pocket knife
• Whistle
• Hand sanitizer
• Personal hygiene items
• Important family documents (copies of birth and marriage certificates, passports, licenses, wills, land deeds and insurance)

Buy a kit
The Canadian Red Cross has developed a comprehensive disaster preparedness kit to take the guess-work out of being ready from short-term power outages to major disasters. This is a great kit to help you get started. Add your own items to make it more personal for you and your family. For suggested items, see our Additional Items list.

 

Solar power  

 Solar is a good back up to power outages 

Vehicle emergency preparedness kit
A vehicle emergency preparedness kit is an important part of winter safety in Canada. Severe storms can happen at any time. Be prepared to help yourself and your family if you are ever stuck in your vehicle for an extended period of time. Learn more about items to include in your vehicle kit. 

 

You Make the Difference – Support Canadians Affected by Disasters
From house fires to forest fires, hurricanes to floods, the Canadian Red Cross is there for more than 20,000 Canadians who are affected by disasters each year. Please donate to the Canadian Red Cross Fund.

Re: One Member, Per Council, Per Month

A worthy call to action -brother knights

 

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

On Wed, Oct 17, 2012 at 2:20 PM, Knights of Columbus <noreply@kofc.org> wrote:

Worthy Grand Knight:

As you know a council's good works and charitable activities are a key to its success. The more events or wider outreach a council has each year in its parish and community, the more lives it touches, the more members it keeps engaged, and the more prospective members it attracts. As you are aware, our Knights of Columbus activities and programs fall into six categories: Church, Community, Council, Culture of Life, Family and Youth. Every community has needs, and Knights of Columbus councils should help address those needs. One reason that we have asked every council to recruit one new member per month is each new member will be a new source of ideas and another volunteer to help others. Every new member increases the resources available to council in its charitable outreach: more food and clothing collected for needy families, more successful charitable fund-raisers, and more people whose lives are improved.

For generations, Knights of Columbus have served their communities. The efforts of council members united in charity and fraternity are a testament to our Catholic faith. This is how charity evangelizes, which is our mission and way of life.

Here are some reminders of the important upcoming events that we hope your council is involved in hosting:

October 20-21:  Orderwide membership drive in honor of council chaplains: This is a time to be visible in the parish and invite potential members to join our Order. Be sure to order materials and conduct an open house.

October 22-28: Orderwide First Degree Ceremonials: Welcome new members and make it convenient for interested candidates to join the Order.

November 24-25: Orderwide Corporate Communion Weekends: Invite all council members to attend Mass and received Communion as a group during the Solemnity of Christ the King. Sponsor a social event for the entire parish following the Mass.

Guide your council to be a Star Council or Double Star Council this fraternal year. It will be a great  accomplishment for both you and your council. It's easy to do using the Power of One, or link directly to: www.kofc.org/recruit1.

Has your Council recruited ONE MEMBER PER COUNCIL PER MONTH?

Vivat Jesus!

Inspirational thought-Make everyone welcome by reaching out

When You Feel InsecurePortrait by Gary james (Brantford Artist)

"A new command I [Jesus] give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."¹

Do you ever walk into a room full of strangers with the sense that you are the only one who feels insecure? The fact is that others, at least some of them in that room, probably feel the same way, especially if they are also strangers to the group. Feelings of insecurity are part of the human condition because we are all wounded in some way to some degree.

We visited a new church on one occasion where nobody bothered to talk to or welcome us, so I decided to talk to others and welcome them. "It's good to have you here at church today," I said and asked, "are you a member?" In fact, just this last Sunday morning after church I saw a man standing alone, so I specifically went to speak to him and help make him feel welcome. He turned out to be a first-time visitor. A little later this same man sought me out to thank me for talking to him, and told me that I was the only person that bothered to stop and speak to him.

So, when in a group of strangers, talk to a person who may be standing alone and ask him/her about him/herself. This will get you out of yourself and in time you will feel much better about yourself. I'm not suggesting that we be phony, but sometimes we just need to acknowledge our fear, but don't allow it to control us or hold us back from doing the right thing.

If we keep reaching out to others with a sincere motive and do the loving thing, in time this will help us to become more secure ourselves. It may be a challenge at first, but it is what Christ commanded us to do. That is, to love one another. One way to do this is to reach out to a stranger in your midst who is all alone.

Fwd: FW: Canada eh?

NOW YOU KNOW WHY

A little smile is good for the soul

Subject: Canada eh?

 

 

 

Canada eh!   TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA 1. Vancouver : 1.5 million people and two bridges. You do the math. 2. Your $400,000 Vancouver home is just 5 hours from downtown. 3. You can throw a rock and hit three Starbucks locations. 4. There's always some sort of deforestation protest going on. 5. Weed. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN ALBERTA 1. Big rock between you and B.C. 2. Ottawa who? 3. Tax is 5% instead of the approximately 200% it is for the rest of the country. 4. You can exploit almost any natural resource you can think of. 5. You live in the only province that could actually afford to be its own country. 6. The Americans below you are all in anti-government militia groups. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN SASKATCHEWAN 1. You never run out of wheat. 2. Your province is really easy to draw. 3. You can watch the dog run away from home for hours. 4. People will assume you live on a farm. 5. Daylight savings time? Who the heck needs that! TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN MANITOBA 1. You wake up one morning to find that you suddenly have a beachfront property. 2. Hundreds of huge, horribly frigid lakes. 3. Nothing compares to a wicked Winnipeg winter. 4. You can be an Easterner or a Westerner depending on your mood. 5. You can pass the time watching trucks and barns float by. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN ONTARIO 1. You live in the centre of the universe. 2. Your $400,000 Toronto home is actually a dump. 3. You and you alone decide who will win the federal election. 4. The only province with hard-core American-style crime. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN QUEBEC 1. Racism is socially acceptable. 2. You can take bets with your friends on which English neighbour will move out next. 3. Other provinces basically bribe you to stay in Canada . 4. You can blame all your problems on the "Anglo A*#!%!" TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN NEW BRUNSWICK 1. One way or another, the government gets 98% of your income. 2. You're poor, but not as poor as the Newfies. 3. No one ever blames anything on New Brunswick .. 4. Everybody has a grandfather who runs a lighthouse. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN NOVA SCOTIA 1. Everyone can play the fiddle. The ones who can't, think they can. 2. You can pretend to have Scottish heritage as an excuse to get drunk and wear a kilt. 3. You are the only reason Anne Murray makes money. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND 1. Even though more people live on Vancouver Island , you still got the big, new bridge. 2. You can walk across the province in half an hour. 3. You can drive across the province in two minutes. 4. Everyone has been an extra on "Road to Avonlea." 5. This is where all those tiny, red potatoes come from. 6. You can confuse ships by turning your porch lights on and off at night. TOP REASONS TO LIVE IN NEWFOUNDLAND 1. If Quebec separates, you will float off to sea. 2. If you do something stupid, you have a built-in excuse. 3. The workday is about two hours long. 4. It is socially acceptable to wear your hip waders to your wedding. Pass this along to Canadians who need a laugh and foreigners who can learn something about Canada and then enjoy a good chuckle. Let's face it: Canadians are a rare breed. The Official Canadian Temperature Conversion Chart 50° Fahrenheit (10° C) · Californians shiver uncontrollably. · Canadians plant gardens. 35° Fahrenheit (1.6° C) · Italian Cars won't start · Canadians drive with the windows down 32° Fahrenheit (0° C) · American water freezes · Canadian water gets thicker. 0° Fahrenheit (-17.9° C) · New York City landlords finally turn on the heat. · Canadians have the last cookout of the season. -60° Fahrenheit (-51° C) · Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. · Canadian Girl Guides sell cookies door-to-door. -109.9° Fahrenheit (-78.5° C) · Carbon dioxide freezes makes dry ice. · Canadians pull down their earflaps. -173° Fahrenheit (-114° C) · Ethyl alcohol freezes. · Canadians get frustrated when they can't thaw the keg -459.67° Fahrenheit (-273.15° C) · Absolute zero; all atomic motion stops. · Canadians start saying "cold, eh?" -500° Fahrenheit (-295° C) · Hell freezes over. · The Toronto Maple Leafs win the Stanley Cup!

Thank you Brothers -Canada Day at Lions Park was fun and a success

Proud to be a Canadian -Proud to be a Knight - That is what Canada Day is all about

 

Too all who attended Canada Day Celebration  and put smiles on community  faces manning the KOC snack wagon  -particularly Ken - thank you -it shows what we as Knights are all about  in this community. You did it unselfishly  -you did not talk about it -you are are a doer of good deeds. Just great !

 

 it's a good time to reconsider this advice from a great American:

 

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.

 
That was Theodore Roosevelt speaking at the Sorbonne in 1910, but he could have just as easily been speaking to you.

 

Those critics, those naysayers, the nags and the negative people in our lives who want to tell us: "No. It can't be done. Don't try. Give up,  Why do you have to stand out? Why won't you just be sensible and give in to the inevitable?" They don't count. And you mustn't mistake their words for truth.

 

Don't buy into their message  Together we will grow our Knights to a stronger force for the good. We are a positive forum for community action . .

Use the great gifts you have been given,we are  a forum where your talents will shine, discover that place where your spirit soars and the work smells like… victory in the morning.

Who will you bring to the party ? Duplicate yourselves with new members interested  in doing good things . Have a great summer Brother Knights .
