Council 12402

The things that haven't been done before,
Those are the things to try:
Columbus dreamed of an unknown shore
At the rim of the far-flung sky.
Edgar Albert Guest

     The image that appears on the preceding page was published and described in the October 2003 issue of Columbia, the monthly magazine of the Knights of Columbus. It was painted by Antonella Cappuccio and was commissioned in commemoration of the 113th. anniversary of the death of Fr. Michael McGivney, the founder of the Knights of Columbus in 1882. The black and gold border is copied from "The Knights of Columbus in Peace and War", published in 1920.
     As described by Supreme Knight Carl A. Anderson at the 121st. Convention: "She has depicted Father McGivney the visionary. She shows Father McGivney paused in reflection after meditating on Scripture. His thoughts are concerned with his parish, St. Mary's, and with the young immigrant families he has been called to serve."
     The photograph shown below shows Archbishop Edwin O'Brien standing in front of a copy of the Vision of Fr. Michael McGiveny. Archbishop O'Brien is currently the head of the Archdiocese for the Military Services. During the late 1960s he was an associate pastor at the Catholic Chapel of the Most Holy Trinity at West Point, New York, which was my parish when I was a child.
