Sir Knights & Ladies:
Our new liturgical year will begin shortly with the season of Advent, a time we use to prepare us for Christmas.
We had a very good turnout for our Communion Breakfast. The meal was enjoyed by all. We even had some SK’s & Ladies from London. Also thanks to those Sir Knights that participated in the various ministries at Mass.
The November 2nd Memorial Service was well attended. The SK’s in Regalia complemented the service & gave a helping hand to those requiring.
Thanks to the Sir Knights that represented our Assembly on Nov 11th at the Remembrance Day Parade and the Cenotaph Ceremony.
Our November Meeting will be a meeting only.
I hope as many as possible come out to our annual Christmas Dinner which will be held on Friday December 9th. For tickets contact SK John Price. They are $ 20 for a Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings.
Also thanks to the SK’s that have agreed to host our upcoming Euchre Parties. We now have coverage through March.
When our Dinner Meals commence in January the cost will be $17.
Fraternally Yours

Dear Brother Knights,
We have just celebrated Thanksgiving and I hope all of you enjoyed the beautiful Day. We have so much for which to be thankful.
By the time that you receive this bulletin, we will be preparing for the three days of Hallowe’en, All Saints Day and All Souls day. November is the month when we commemorate the faithful departed.Over the last year, we have had a number of Knights pass away. .On November 2, we will have a memorial service at 7:00p.m. at Immaculate Conception Church. This is a time when we not only remember the deceased Knights but all the faithful departed from our cluster who died over the past year. It is also a way for us to support the families that are grieving the loss of their loved ones. I hope as many as possible will attend this service.
As Christians, we believe in the doctrine of the Resurrection.It is the central doctrine of our faith. Life for us is changed not ended.Belief in the Resurrection gives us hope and at a time of sadness, there can be joy because of our belief. In our wake service, we say the old order has passed away, welcome the person into paradise where there will be no sorrow, no weeping nor pain but the fullness of peace and joy with your Son and the Holy Spirit for ever and ever.Surely this gives us hope. I want to assure you of our prayers and support through your time of grief.
I want to thank all of you for what you do for our faith community and the wider community.May God bless you and your families.
Your Chaplain
Fr. Dick Bester
