GREETINGS BROTHER KNIGHTS!
MERRY CHRISTMAS to all Brother
Knights and their Families from my fellow K of C
Officers and myself. May the Christ Child bestow
upon you many blessings in the New Year. Keep
the Peace of Christ in your hearts and extend the
love to others.
Bishop Thomas has been visiting the
Deaneries of the Toledo Diocese to announce his
message. His personal request to us is to pray the
Rosary, fast and do something for the poor. If you
are already doing these things, then he said to do
more. His goal is to help all of us get to Heaven. I
hope you are here for me to help this poor Bishop
get to Heaven. His hope and dream for this
Diocese is to be Holy. One of his visits was to
Kalida St, Michael’s Catholic Church.
My personal wish for each of you is to have
a Blessed Christmas. Treasure the times with your
loved ones.
Respectfully Yours in Christ,
Marcus Roof, Grand Knight
