"Where two or three come together in my name, I am there wi th them." ~ Matthew 18:20

A religious persecution in 1980 left a region of Guatemala without priests. But the people continued to meet in t heir churches. Once a month they sent delegates to a part of Guatemala wher e priests still functioned.

Traveling up to eighteen hours on foot, the delegates put a basket of bread on the altar and celebrated the Eucharist in the name of their parish. After the Mass, they took the brea d home. Now it was the Body of Christ. When the government threatened to cl ose all churches, the people said, "If the authorities forbid us to meet in the churches, we shall gather under the trees of the woods or in the ca ves of the mountains." ~ Fernando Bermudez, Death and Resurrection in G uatemala

"Does a person gain anything if he wins the whole world but loses his life? ~ Mark 8:36

A basketball team had just celebrate d a prayer service before playing in the state tournament. During the servi ce, the chaplain said to the team, "The important thing ten years from no w won't be whether or not you won the state championship. Rather, it will be what you became in the process of trying to win it."

After the pr ayer service, the coach said to the players: "Sit down a minute. Our chapl ain said something that is bothering me. I wonder what we've become trying to put together a winning season. Have we become more loyal to one another? More brotherly? Better Catholics? I hope to God that we have. Because if w e haven't, we've failed God, we've failed one another, we've failed ours elves." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

This past year, have we become more loya l to one another? More brotherly? True Catholic gentlemen?

"Then the angel said to her, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, fr you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus.'" ~ Luke 1:30-31

The Solemnity of the Annunciation marks the moment when God Himself began redee ming the unborn child - and all of us who once were unborn children - by be coming one Himself. Never can the unborn be considered too small to possess rights, for God Himself was that small.

The Annunciation te aches us the fruitfulness of self-giving. When Mary said "Yes" to "Life", she knew the road ahead would be difficult, yet she embraced the vocation of motherhood. This is precisely the opposite behavior that avoids responsi bility, and culminates in abortion. What happened at the Annunciation over comes the fear and despair that lead to violence. Marry's life gives courag e to all mothers who are afraid of the suffering that might lay ahead and a ssures them that they are not alone.

Nelda Bonner was dying of cancer. In her final months, sleep became diffi cult. So she would write in a journal. Her five children found it after her death. It contained over 40 handwritten pages of memories. Here are some e xcerpts:

"In a strange way, I have been happier this last year than I have ever been. I have a peace and calmness that I have never had before . I have discovered what my real relationship with God is... Your daddy and I are closer than we have ever been. He has been my rock. I have learned t o appreciate more than ever small things: a few hours of felling good... th e lovely faces of my grandchildren. I glory in the beauty around me - I tru ly look at the world through the eyes of love." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

N eed we wait until we are on our deathbed before we appreciate the truly imp ortant things in our lives?

"Whoever wants to be first must place himself last of all an d he the servant of all." ~ Mark 9:35

Twice a year geese migrate in a V formation, as a flock. Philip Yancey explains: "That's the secret of their strength... cooperating as a flock, geese can increase their flig ht distance by 71 percent... The lead goose cuts a swath through the air re sistance, which creates a helping uplift for the two birds behind him. In turn, their beating makes it easier on the birds behind them... Each bird takes his turn as the leader. The tired birds fan out to the edges of the V for a breather, and the rested ones surge forward to the point of the V t o drive the flock onward." ~ Campus Life

Are you r eady to assume the point in the V formation of our Council? Is our Council ready to assume the lead in the V formation of our parish? The Catholic Chu rch?

"As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me; night is coming when no one can work." ~ John 9:4

President Harry S. Truman once said: "The greatest epitaph is the count ry is right here in Arizona. It's in tombstone, Arizona, and the epitaph says, "Here lies Jack Williams. He done his damndest." I think that is the greatest epitaph a man could have. Whenever a man does the best he can, t hen that is all he can do; and that is what your President has been trying to do for the last three years for this country." ~ Mark Link, S.J.
What motivates Knights to do the best they can for God and country?

Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and t o wait.
