At a September 28th Council #5436 Exemplification Ceremonial held at Our Lady of the Lakes parish located in Waterford, MI, 3 new Brothers were brought into the Order as 3rd Degree Knights. An additional 2 new Brother Knights (Ross Nickels, and Robert Jansen) were exemplified online by our Worthy DD113, Chris Scheuer. This makes a total of 9 so far this year for Council #5436, which puts it at 60% by September 30th AND thus becoming eligible for the incentive award of a beautiful KofC table covering!

Lots of questions from today’s readings. What was the big deal with eating lambs taken from the flock, and calves from the stall? Who was the “Timothy” to whom Paul was writing? What was the “bosom of Abraham,” and why didn’t anyone warn the rich man that merely calling to Abraham was insufficient to save his eternal soul? Answers to all these questions and more in today’s Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless! Dad
