Faithful Navigator's Message
Thank you brother Sir Knights for giving me the honor to serve you as the next Portola Assembly Faithful Navigator for Columbian Year 2009-10. I have some very big shoes to fill. SK John, SK Bob, and SK Ed have helped us be aware of our purpose based on the foresight of Venerable Fr. Michael J. McGivney, who taught us how to show Christ's love for our brothers and our country through our actions and deeds.
It seems that today there are more and more leaders in positions of trust and power who are purposely leading us down the wrong path. And, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" (Edmond Burk ).
Our imperative is strive for ways we can even better combat this monolithic evil. Leaders of our Church and our Fraternal Order say the way is through Christ's Love. We can be even more effective servants of our Lord Jesus Christ if we learn how to better practice Christ's Love. Our next step is to learn what our Supreme Knight has written in three books: A Civilization of Love, Called to Love, and Our Lady of Guadalupe: Mother of the Civilization of Love. Then we can proceed to more effective action to demonstrate Christ's Love.
Vivat Jesus!
SK Dave Vincent, FN
