KNIGHTS' TEN COMMANDMENTS, LIFE, AND BEATITUDES MONUMENT
The spectacularly beautiful yet reverent three-tablet monument reminding St. Isidore parishioners and visitors of core Catholic principles (God's Ten Commandments, sacredness of human life, and the Beatitudes) was dedicated on Thursday, May 16. Father Matthew thanked all who had a hand in inspiring the idea for the monument, funding it, and then placing it. He then blessed these beautiful tablets to God's purpose.
Knight Ed Indelicato, who led the effort from its inception, himself thanked all involved, including Gabe and Bernadette Moufarrej, Owners of InContro Ristorante. Gabe also operates a construction company; he arranged for installation of the heavy-duty concrete pads needed to place the monument's granite tablets.
Bert Morrison (St. Isidore Facilities Manager, who along with his wife Jean also leads the Confirmation program) assisted with the landscaping. Father Mark and Father Candelario (current Chaplain and immediate past Chaplain to our K of C 4060 Council) were on hand for the dedication. Thanks, all!

Our Catholic Faith and four core principles inform the good works of the Knights of Columbus:
CHARITY
Among charitable works conducted by our St. Isidore Knights are the many food baskets we prepare for needy families at Christmas time.
UNITY
None of us alone is as good
as all of us united. So we stick together in making life better for our parish and our community.
FRATERNITY
We also cooperate as brother Knights in such fine service opportunities as the East Bay Stand Down (for Veterans).
PATRIOTISM
We are proud of our devotion to God and faithful support of the Church, our Nation, our families -- and allegiance to our Flag.
