"Hypocrisy is the very language of corruption.
And when Jesus speaks to his disciples, he says: 'let your language be: Yes, yes! No, no.'Hypocrisy is not a language of truth,
because the truth is never given alone. Never! It is always given with love! There is no truth without love. Love is the first
truth. If there is no love, there is no truth.These men want truth enslaved to their own interests.There is a love, of sorts:
it is love of the self, love for themselves. That narcissist idolatry that leads them to betray others, that leads them to
the abuse of trust."
With
this website I would like to say thanks to my Brother Knights of St. James Council 4949, who have given me the honour serving
St. James Council 4949 as their Grand Knight for two terms from 2010 to 2012. Thanks to all officers of St. James
Council 4949, helping me during my two terms in office as Grand Knight, to make it a memorable one. Your commitments to your
job is reflected in our successes achieved for our Council. Thank again for a job well done. Please continue your
good work for our Order, by supporting our new Grand Knight and officers during the next fraternal year.
Thanks
again for this wonderful experience, filed with lasting memories.

During my terms as Grand Knight (2010-2012) I have
said many times:
"As more you understand the principles and goals of the Knights of Columbus, as more you would like to get involved."
Serving
the Knights of Columbus since 1994, inspired by our Supreme Knight Carl A. Anderson many other Knights including my own enthusiasm
for the Knghts of Columbus, I have created this website.
Regina and myself, had the opportunity to meet so many new people, which we call now friends. With my twitter
account I’m interacting with many Knights from Councils located in different countries, sharing our experiences
as Knights of Columbus members.
What we have all in common, is the willingness
and the Knights of Columbus spirit, helping, when help is needed.
I would
like to invite you to visit all sites including links, which will give you an overview of activities of the Knights of Columbus, including other jubjects were I feel close too.
We at
St. James Council 4949 have demonstrated again what charity is all about. The Schubert Centre, Gateby Place and Columbus Court
built by St. James Council 4949, are prime examples to our commitment to our community at large.
St.
James Council 4949 supporting for the last 52 years St. James Church, St. James School and many other local organisation,
and It’s feels good to be a part of on organisation called, "The Knights of Columbus."
For updates about St. James Council's
4949 activities, please check out the new website of St. James Council 4949.
I will updates this site, if I will
find some items of interest regarding the Knights of Columbus or other catholic jubjects. Thank you for visiting this site.
Please enjoy uploaded videos too. For Knights of Columbus videos click here.
I also would like to encourage every practicing catholic gentlemen,
over 18 year of age, to check out the Knights of Columbus website, by exploring your personal benefits by being a member of the Knights of Columbus in your community,
In closing I would like to say:
"Being a Knight is more than camaraderie;
it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it
is about protecting and enhancing your family life.
Imagine being part of an organization that fills your heart
and your mind with the joy of giving to others and the feeling that comes with making a difference.If you are a Catholic gentleman,
and are interested in learning near you"
Vivat Jesus

.Some projects and events during my terms as Grand Knight 2010-2012 (videos)
St. James Council 4949 Wheelchair project 2011-2012(video) For
many years the Knight of Columbus partnering with the Canadian Wheelchair Foundation to raise funds, to provide mobility for people in need. The response of my Brother Knights and our parishioners
at St. James was overwhelming. After the first presentation, made by Bro. Ralph Hounslow at Saturday mass and on Sunday
mass, we received an overwhelming response from our parishioners at St. James. Transforming lives through mobility, and with
it giving to all those deprived of it by war, disease, accident, natural disaster and advanced age, independence, dignity,
hope and opportunity. St. James Council 4949 raised over $7,500 to purchase 47 wheelchairs. We never ever expected such a
positive response from our parishioners. 47
wheelchairs will help 47 people with freedom of mobility.
