Brother Knight, Todd White has reinstated the Yahoo Groups site in hopes that our membership will consider taking part in the services which it provides.  Please join and take a little time to poke around the site.  I think it could make our lives a lot easier at 9002, and help you get more from the our web pages.  It’s like an unused toolbox, jammed with new tools for us to use.  There is no charge to join the Group, so just click on the link below...

Council meetings are held on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 7:30 PM, in the Knights Hall.  The prayer of "The Rosary Of Our Blessed Virgin Mary" starts at 7:00, prior to the meetings, come and join us for the comfort you will find in the prayer.  Pope John Paul has said, "the Rosary does indeed 'mark the rhythm of human life,' bringing it into harmony with the 'rhythm' of God's own life."  The reciting of the Rosary on a daily basis can be a great blessing and a great source of strength for our lives, especially during the month of May, which is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of the World.  Our hope is that the new set of mysteries, the Luminous Mysteries, or Mysteries of Light, will become incorporated into our weekly rosary cycles.        

     
                         OUR 22ND ANNIVERSARY YEAR
In April of 1985, officers for the “new” Father Cyril Karlowicz Council 9002 were installed at a ceremony in the St John Bosco Catholic Church in Woodstock. The newly chartered Council 9002 was named in the memory of Father Cyril Karlowicz, a former pastor of the church, who had died of cancer some years before. He was in his thirties when he passed away.  The first installed council chaplain was Father Sylvester Catallo, St. John Bosco Catholic Church Pastor. The picture of the Council’s Charter hangs in the Knights Hall in Woodstock, along with a picture of the original officers. To see the photo of the original officers, click here.The first Grand Knight was Frank Beeton, and his Deputy Grand Knight was Merrill Long.  Our Council is located in District 20, and the District Deputy is Scott Lavey

Do not imitate those who deceive themselves by saying: "I will sin and then go to confession." How do you know that you will have time to make your confession? Is it not madness to wound oneself, in the hope that a doctor will be found who will heal the wound? *-St. John Bosco
