A Message from Father Jeffrey Dauses
Dear Friends, It is such a great honor and joy to welcome you to today’s Reception in honor of the Installation of Officers for our Knights of Columbus Santo Nino Council. Today we commission and thank those who will serve as Officers of our Council for the coming year. It is an opportunity both to thank them for their service and to ask God’s abundant grace upon them and upon our Santo Nino Council. Today we honor and thanks those chosen for leadership with our Council. And in doing so, we commend them to the Lord, who gave us the supreme example of leadership when he washed the feet of his disciples at the Last Supper. Thus, the Lord shows us that the heart of true Christ-centered leadership is service. Today, we thank the Knights of our Santo Nino Council, who consistently and constantly show forth their commitment to serve the Lord, to serve our faith, and to serve our parish community. They are always eager to serve, and they repeatedly show forth their commitment to help build and strengthen our parish. Of course, today is ostensibly focused on those who will serve as Officers of our Council. But we all know that every single Knight in our Council (including their wives and families) is a leader – a leader of faith and of service. We thank them, and we thank God for them. In the name of our entire parish, I offer our deepest thanks to our Santo Nino Council for their ongoing and selfless service. They are, indeed, “In Service to One, and in Service to All.” With a thankful heart, and in gratitude to God, the source of every grace and blessing, I am, Sincerely in the Lord, Fr. Jeffrey S. Dauses Pastor Immaculate Heart of Mary and St. Thomas More Pastorate
