Grand Knight’s Message –

              

 

 

 

Our Lady’s Message – "Dear children! I call you to work on your personal conversion.  You are still far from meeting with God in your heart.  Therefore, spend all the more time in prayer and Adoration of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar, for Him to change you and to put into your hearts a living faith and a desire for eternal life.  Everything is passing, little children, only God is not passing.  I am with you and I encourage you with love.  Thank you for having responded to my call.” 03.2008

 

Thought for the Month – The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything.

 

Remember to perform a RAK every day.
