This is - the one day of the year, when members of our council, together with members of their families, gather as a body, to attend <the Holy Sacrifice and receive Holy Communion.

First: What a fitting tribute to our departed brothers. What a wonderful way to show how grateful we are for their past leadership which has guided our order these many years. Second: It is the Holy Tear, and the golden anniversary of the ordination to the priesthood of our Holy Father, Pope PiuS XII. Third: The priests and religious in foreign countries, who are being tortured, persecuted and publicly disgraced by those who would destroy Catholicity and Christianity are in urgent need of our prayers.
