Dear Brother Knight,
As Catholics and as Knights, the Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian life” – in all that we do, the root of our strength. When we receive our Lord in Holy Communion, we are fed, then sent forth to be Christ’s emissaries to those we encounter — in our homes and neighborhoods, at work and in our greater communities.
As you know, the bishops of the United States have invited all U.S. Catholics to participate in a National Eucharistic Revival. It is a call to renew – or perhaps even spark for the first time – each Catholic’s understanding of and devotion to the Eucharist. As Knights, we should be at the forefront of responding to this call.
I personally challenge you to find ways to participate in this revival individually, as well as in community with your council or state council. This new flyer lists several practical ways you can answer this call over the coming weeks and months. I ask that you prayerfully consider what you can undertake. For those of you with families, how can you lead them on this journey as well?
Now is an excellent moment to become, more and more, “Knights of the Eucharist.” So, let us heed this invitation to nurture a deeper love of Our Lord in the Eucharist among every member of the Church, beginning in our own hearts.
Thank you for joining me and our brother Knights in supporting and participating in the National Eucharistic Revival.
Vivat Jesus!
Patrick E. Kelly
Supreme Knight
