Chili Cook-Off
Thanks to all of you who participated in the Chili Cook-Off this year.  Thanks to all Brother Knights for working and participating in this year’s event.  A longer report will be provided in the November Knightletter.

40 Days For Life – September 28th  to November 6th
We have entered a period of prayer & fast that will change history.  The fall vigil is taking place at the Women’s Health Specialists abortion business at 1750 Wright Street off Alta Arden Expy.
Good news!  Since the 40 Days for Life prayer vigil was begun in 2007, a total of 16 abortion clinics have closed across America, including (2) during September.  This could not have happened without your prayer, fasts & witness to life.

Please sign up today to pray, fast, & witness with others around America and the world.  Your family members are welcome and encouraged to participate in the vigil as well.  Please sign them up when you sign up for the vigil.  Please email me or call me so I can put you on our council’s prayer-fast-witness list.

As we participate with so many others across our country, please remember that this is a spiritual battle – to win a spiritual battle we cannot put our faith in laws, politicians or judges – we must use spiritual weaponry – prayer, sacrifice & faithful witness. These are what are needed to bring an end to abortion in our country and the world.

“Through moral conscience God speaks to each of us, inviting us to defend human life at all times, and in this personal bond with the Creator lies the profound dignity of moral conscience and the reason for its inviolability…it is necessary that society as a whole must defend the conceived child’s right to life and the true good of the woman who can never, in any circumstances, find fulfillment in the decision to abort.”  Pope Benedict XVI, addressing members of the Pontifical Academy for Life on Feb. 26, 2011.
