"And now I am no more in the world, but they are in the wor ld, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name, which t hou hast given me, that they man be one, even as we are one." ~ John 17:11

Among other things, Mass is the sacrament of the unity of the Body of Christ. When someone tells us, "I'll be there in spirit!", we know they really mean, "I won't be there". Jesus knew that too, which is why he did not leave us as orphans but remains with us, not only in Sp irit, but in the sacramental presence of the Holy Eucharist. In the same w ay, he now calls us to be members of one another, not just "in spirit" bu t for real. That means we are not only "together" in our hearts, but reall y together in the same room, offering the same prayers, making the same p hysical gestures, hearing the same Scriptures, offering the same bread an d wine and receiving the same Body and Blood of Christ. As we do this, we are, by the promise of Christ, joined not only to each other but...

"I beg you to be kind and listen to our brief account." ~ Acts 24:4

Erma was waiting for her flight. It felt good just sitti ng and reading a book, with no one to bother her. Just then a woman sat do wn and said, "Bet it's cold in Chicago." Erma said coldly, "Probably". Th e kept talking, and Erma kept responding coldly. Then the woman dropped th e bombshell. She was taking her husband back to Chicago. He had died after 53 years of marriage. Erma's heart sank. She closed her book, held the wom an's hand, and listened.

When the call to board came, they walked arm in arm to the plane. Then they went to their assigned seats, wh ich were a few rows apart. As Erma buckled up, she heard the woman say to the person next to her, "Bet it's cold in Chicago." Erma found herself pra ying: "Dear God, help the person next to her listen kindly." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

"And you, child, will be called prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the LORD to prepare his ways." ~ Luke 1:7 6

Joel Weldon, and expert on human potential, likes to tell about the Chinese bamboo tree. This unusual plant takes five years to emerge from the soil. All during these five years, however, it has to be watered and fertilized. Once the plant emerges, it skyrockets to a height of 90 feet in six short weeks. The plant's rapid growth is made possible by the elabor ate root system that developed during the five years of germination.

John the Baptist, like Jesus, spent 30 years preparing for his ministry. It was the most important time of his life. For during this time he was pu tting down the elaborate spiritual root system that made possible his fruit ful ministry in later life. ~ Author unknown

What kind of spiritual roots are we as Knights growing? Does our Council put an emphasis on the sp iritual growth of each Knight?

"What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is m y Father who gives you the real bread... I am the living bread that came do wn from heave. If anyone eats this bread, he will live forever." ~ Joh n 6:32, 51

Each year, Catholics celebrate the feast of the Body of Christ. Sometimes it includes an outdoor procession. Here is how an Africa n bishop described his experience during a rainstorm in Nigeria in 1986:

"The people danced and sang in the rain. It was the first time I recal l the Blessed Sacrament being carried... to the sound of... cheering and cl apping. Everyone was drenched. No one thought of seeking shelter or running away. Judges, lawyers, doctors, mothers, children stood their ground a s if nothing was happening except the Eucharist. I have not seen anything l ike it here or anywhere else." ~ America magazine

Do we somet imes forget that the consecrated bread is truly the Body of Christ?

"(Jesus said of his disciples' failure to stay awake and pra y,) 'The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." ~ Mark 14:38
< br>There's an old story about a farmer who was perennially plagued by a lar ge rock located in the center of his field. Apart from the inconvenience of plowing around it each year, he sometimes forgot it and damaged equipment on it. He swore that he would take time off some day and dig it out once a nd for all. But he kept putting it off year after year. One day he decided to act. To his surprise, the rock was almost totally on the surface and qu ite easily removed.

He thought to himself, "Why did it take me so long to get around to digging it up? How much grief I could have save d myself had I removed it right away!" ~ William Bennett

What rocks has our Council procrastinated in removing this year?

"The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty." ~ Proverbs 21:5

St. Cyril, later recognized as a great teacher of the Church, began his career as Archbishop of Alexa ndria with impulsive, often violent, actions. He pillaged and closed the churches of Novatian heretics, participated in the deposing of St. John Ch rysostom and confiscated Jewish property in retaliation for their attacks o n Christians. His style would later hurt him as he championed the cause of orthodoxy against the heresy of Nestorius, who declared that Mary could no t be the mother of the one Person who is truly God and truly human. Eventua lly, Cyril learned to practice moderation and overcome Nestorius and his t eachings. He was later declared a doctor of the church.

The lives of the saints are valuable not only for the virtue they reveal but also for t he less than admirable qualities they overcome. Holiness is a gift from God to be used in our daily lives. We try to respond ...
