Hello SKs and Brothers,
This Thursday June 2nd we will be having our last “Officers” meeting for the Columbian Year at 6:30pm at our Knights Hall located off of Newman Court.
If you have any receipts to turn in, please provide copies to FS John for processing and reimbursement before this month’s “Business” meeting which will be Thursday on June 9th as an Italian plated dinner with a main dish of Chicken Penne Pasta.
Saint of The Day: St. Justin, Philosopher and Martyr
Coming to know God face to face. He’ll get there, but this man with a sharp intellect and an even sharper soul starts from afar, from paganism. In Samaria in the first century after Christ, Justin grows up nourished by philosophy. The masters of Greek philosophical thought are the light guiding his search for the infinite Being. He has a burning desire for this knowledge; if he could, he would like to grasp and explain that infinite Being with the power of reason.
The fame of the missionary-philosopher, to whom we owe the oldest extant description of the Eucharistic liturgy, traverses the centuries. Even Vatican II recalls his teaching in two pillars of the Council: the documents Lumen gentium and Gaudium et Spes. For Justin, Christianity is the historical and personal manifestation of the Logos in his totality. For this reason, Justin says, “Everything beautiful, no matter who said it, belongs to us Christians.”
