Our brother Knights and fellow parishioners must be saved from contraception and its many harmful effects. Become educated on contraception and the beauty of God’s teaching on Human Love, even if your marriage is past the years of welcoming children, this is a gift which must be learned to be shared with your children.

CatholicVote is an excellent source of solid Catholic political views and opinion as well as news and current events. I thought I would introduce them to you with this article on our expected new Archbishop. I expressed my joy a bit at the Officers meeting but I will elaborate here. This man has done spectacular work in Denver and his courage and gifts will be well spent here. Our Holy Father is looking out for us and has given us a shepherd to follow.

I just wanted to take a moment and remind everyone that the KOP 10 MIler is upon us very soon. On June 5, 2011 several hundred runners will be traversing the lovely hills of King of Prussia. The event has been very successful and that is in part due to the generous support from us, the MDP Knights. If you are interested in running you can find more information at www.kingofprussia10miler.com

If you are interested in volunteering please contact Steve Gibbons via email

The proceeds from the race go to the MDP Education Endowment Fund. Please come out and support this worthy cause in any way you can. You can volunteer in any area you would like, but traditionally the Knights have been the marshals for the event. I would love to see a Knight at every turn of the race. Thank you for all your time, sweat, and effort.

Vivat Jesus
The Grand Knight

They are one of the many “Catholic” organizations that seeks to undermine most of the Church’s teaching and authority. If you receive their letters please recycle it immediately. I will gladly elaborate on this organization if a brother requests it.
