"Our primary objective is to prevent our people from entering Secret Societies by offering the same if not better advantages to our members. Secondly, to unite the men of our Faith. ...that we may thereby gain strength to aid each other in time of sickness; to provide for a decent burial, and to render pecuniary assistance to the families of deceased members." - Father McGivney

Father McGivney ministered to prisoners. One prisoner he visited often was Chip Smith, who — while drunk — shot and killed a police officer. Smith was convicted for first-degree murder and sentenced to be hanged.
Smith would convert to the Catholic faith before his execution after Father McGivney's visits.

GRAND KNIGHTS MESSAGE
WELCOME TO THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT. I TRULY HOPE ALL ARE WELL AND COVID FREE. HOPEFULLY, ALL ARE ENOYING THE HOT WEATHER. IF NOT, JUST TRY TO THINK ABOUT WHAT IT WILL BE LIKE IN 5 MONTHS. IT JUST MAY MAKE THE TEMPERATURES EASIER TO BEAR.
WITH THE HIGH HEAT IN MIND, I WANT TO MENTION THE LOUNGE IS OPEN MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, AND FRIDAY EVENINGS TO COOL YOURSELF DOWN. IT'S MY OPINION THAT 2 OZ. OF ALCOHOL ON THE INSIDE DETERS THE CORONAVIRUS. THIS IS MY OPINION ONLY AND WE ALL KNOW ABOUT OPINIONS.
NOT MUCH ELSE GOING ON OTHER THAN THAT. SO PLEASE STAY SOCIAL DISTANCED, WEAR A MASK WHERE MANDATED, AND ASK THE BLESSED MOTHER FOR HELP DURING THESE DIFFICULT TIMES.
GOD BLESS,
TOM GOODHART, GRAND KNIGHT

Attention friends! Please read the article about a temporary water boiling alert!
We hope everyone is doing well!
A water main break on a 24” water line near 267 North Firestone Blvd. occurred last evening causing reduced water pressure for customers in portions of the Kenmore neighborhood of Akron and Coventry Township. The City of Akron has isolated the broken main and has returned most customers back to normal operating pressure. Akron has dispatched repair crews to the site and has initiated the repair of this line with an expected completion by this evening.
As a precaution, the City of Akron Water Division is issuing a boil water advisory for Akron drinking water customers located south of Wilbeth Ave. and west of South Main Street. The limits of the advisory are shown in red on the enclosed map. https://www.akronohio.gov/cms/news/df7a4c8b0bb66f55/index.html
