Knights in Action (Managing Resources to Jumpstart your Career):

On May 1, 2016 the Knights of Columbus and

St. Simon/ Jude Youth Group held a Managing

Resources to Jumpstart your Career night. The

seminar lasted from 6pm to 8pm. Mike Meyers and

Katie Jones hosted the evening. There were

students from West Jefferson, Bishop Ready and

Hilliard Schools. The meeting was filled with

facts, fun and pizza. Here are pictures of the event.

Michael would like to extend a huge thanks for

those of you who supported the resource

management presentation May 1. In particular I

would like to thank Katie for allowing us to partner

with her and the youth group and Deacon Joe for

heavily recruiting at Ready. Also, I would like to

thank Delaney Mandel for her presentation on

college life.

There were about 15 youth and a few adults in the

audience. Hopefully next year we can continuously

improve the presentation and increase the number

of attendees.

Again - thanks for the support and God bless.

For any information given at the meeting or

any additional information please contact Mike

Myers at 614-306-0932.

Knights in Action (Confirmation gifts given out):

On April 26, 2016 St. Simon and Jude and St.

Patrick held the Sacrament of Confirmation at St.

Patrick’s in London, Ohio. It was an incredible

evening watching are young adults receiving this

sacrament. The Knights of Columbus were present

at this event and presented gifts to those who

received the Sacrament of Confirmation.

Here are a few pictures of those who received gifts

from the Knights of Columbus.

Sheldon Council 11224 gave flowers to all the

of very happy Moms.

Knights in Action:

In the month of April, the Ball Corporation

collected cans of food with the reimbursement of

$1.00 per pound of food collected. They were able

to collect 2,300 pounds of food and reimburse

$2,300 for food collected. Food collected was

distributed among the West Jefferson Food Pantry

and the Holy Family Soup Kitchen. Our Brother

Knight Denise Shope led the project and

distribution of the food collected.

To explain the importance of this project, one

just has to work at the food pantry or the soup

kitchen. This food helps feed those who are hungry

but also frees up money for the Pantry and the Soup

Kitchen. This money can be used to buy additional

food or any other items needed by the less

fortunate. Here are some pictures showing the

distribution of these foods.

Thank you Dennis Shope for taking the lead in this

project and all other Brother Knights that helped

out at this event. Great Job!!!

Happy Birthday Brother Knights!!!

Only Having Insurance “Through

Work” Doesn’t Work

Do you know anyone whose life or career has

drastically changed during these years of economic

downturn? It’s very likely that someone in your

immediate or extended family or group of friends is

facing financial uncertainty. Maybe there’s a

possibility that you (or your spouse) could change

employers, or even lose your job.

Too many people have often relied on group term

life insurance as their only safety net. Often, this

insurance is an employee benefit provided at low or

no cost. The existence of this coverage might

convince someone that personally-owned life

insurance is not necessary.

But only having “through work” insurance can

leave you and your family vulnerable. Most group

life insurance policies are limited in amount, which

may be tied to salary or some other benchmark.

These numbers are often capped, and this cap may

be dangerously low when compared to your

family’s actual needs. In fact, a detailed needs

analysis that evaluates your specific situation, will

likely show that any employer-provided coverage

falls short.

In addition, the amount of group insurance offered

is almost always reduced, sometimes dramatically,

when you retire. You could one day find yourself

without coverage, and if your health has changed

(which it will as you age), you might also find

yourself unable to secure individual protection. At

the very least, it will definitely be more expensive.

While group life insurance can help, it does not

replace the need for individually owned life

insurance. I’ll be happy to meet with you and

provide a no-cost needs analysis, so you’ll know

exactly where you stand.

Get to Know a Saint:

St. Ivo of Kermartin

Ivo Helory, a legal scholar from Kermartin,

France, served as an ecclesiastical judge in the



8

dioceses of Rennes and Treguier, becoming known

as an advocate of the poor. Following his

ordination, he served as a parish priest for eighteen

years. Each day before celebrating Mass, and at

other times as well, he would prostrate himself

before the altar, tearfully offering fervent prayers.

Similarly, he would prepare for his sermons on his

knees. In his preaching, Ivo habitually included

examples drawn from the lives of the saints. He

kept his breviary and his Bible at his side almost

constantly. Ivo generously gave his time to his

priestly duties of hearing confessions and bringing

Viaticum to the dying, carrying the Eucharist in a

silver pyx over his heart. On his deathbed, Ivo kept

his eyes fixed upon a crucifix placed before a

window of his room. Upon hearing a bystander

speak of asking for a doctor, Ivo responded that his

only doctor was Jesus Christ. He repeatedly made

the sign of the cross before breathing his last. Ivo is

venerated as a patron saint of lawyers.

Tony’s Trivia answers:

1. Answer: No, never

Never may a sinful act be committed to

accomplish a good. A good intention (for

example, that of helping one's neighbor)

does not make behavior that is intrinsically

disordered, such as lying and calumny,

good or just. The end does not justify the

means. Thus the condemnation of an

innocent person cannot be justified as a

legitimate means of saving the nation. One

may never do evil so that good may result

from it.

2. Answer: Always False

Source: Catechism of the Catholic

Church #1879

The human person needs to live in society.

Society is not for him an extraneous addition

but a requirement of his nature. Through the

exchange with others, mutual service and

dialogue with his brethren, man develops his

potential; he thus responds to his vocation.

3. Answer: Faith, hope, and charity

Source: Catechism of the Catholic Church

#1813

The theological virtues are the foundation of

Christian moral activity... There are three

theological virtues: faith, hope, and charity.

4. Answer: subsidiarity

Source: Catechism of the Catholic Church #1883

Socialization also presents dangers. Excessive

intervention by the state can threaten personal

freedom and initiative. The teaching of the Church

has elaborated the principle of subsidiarity,

according to which “a community of a higher order

should not interfere in the internal life of a

community of a lower order, depriving the latter of

its functions, but rather should support it in case of

need and help to co-ordinate its activity with the

activities of the rest of society, always with a view

to the common good.

5. Answer: It is a preparation for the Gospel.

The Old Law is defined as a preparation for the

Gospel. Not the New Law which is a law of love, a

law of grace, and a law of freedom. The New Law

is the grace of the Holy Spirit received by faith in

Christ, operating through charity.
