The Michigan Area celebrated First Saturday Mass followed by Lectio Divina on Saturday, February 6th. There were a total of 35 Knights, Dames, Candidates in Formation, an Auxiliary in attendance. The Mass was highlighted by a blessing of Carol & Bill Brewis’s marriage as they celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary this year.
Prior to our Lectio Divina study of scripture, we heard from Order of Malta’s Into the Fire team, their work with the homeless, and the need for winter clothing, especially with the subzero temperatures. We obtained 12 new coats for distribution as well as commitment from many of our members to pitch in, in light of the temperatures predicted for this week.
