Supreme Chaplain - Looking forward to Tuesday's events
An amazing day stretches out before us - the opening Mass with Cardinal Bertone; the Supreme Knight's Report; and the States Dinner. Throughout these events, our attention will be focused on the theme of this Convention: 125 Years of Faith in Action: Witnessing to the "Yes" of Jesus Christ. This theme teaches us that by living the principles of the Order, especially charity, we are bearing witness to Christ who affirms the deepest desire of our hearts - friendship with God. May we open our hearts to the abundant graces this day brings to us all.
It was great seeing the event live on TV...especially hearing the Supreme Knights speech, rather than reading it later on the Internet or Magazine. I had several comments from members in the area I serve as a Field Agent. Being a member for almost 30 years it's wonderful to watch all the progress being made and seeing the growth of the Order.

I have been very impressed with the convention as I follow it in Television. Personally I am a 4th degree knight and this year I will be 25 years as a Knight.Now I am living in Peterborough Ontario where am a founding member of council 10789. I also have been an Insurance Agent for 9 years. Having been born in Cuba and having been a fellow seminarian with Cardinal Jaime Ortega here in Canada I am also extremely proud that you have selected La Virgen de la Caridad Patroness of Cuba and of the Diocesis of Thunder Bay Ontario Canada as the traveling Virgin for the next year.For it was exactly 25 years ago that the Virgen de la Caridad was donated by the Cuban Knights of the United States and particularly the Our Lady Of Charity Council to the Bishop Of Thunder Bay on the 12th of October 1982 as a Centennial project of the Knights of Thunder Bay. I send my greetings to Cardinal Jaime Ortega who I haven't seen since he was studying in Montreal Sincerely Vivat Jesu
