Blessed Sacrament Council 5322 proudly recognizes Brother Joseph Fisher on becoming a Fourth Degree Knight at the 164th Exemplification of Patriotism, held on September 5, 2026, at St. Lawrence the Martyr Catholic Church in North Highlands. The Fourth Degree calls Catholic men to live their faith publicly, defend religious liberty, promote civic responsibility, and serve as examples of faithful citizenship. Sir Knights support veterans, active-duty military personnel, first responders, and community initiatives that strengthen the bonds among faith, family, and country. By entering the Fourth Degree, Sir Knight Joseph embraces the principle of Patriotism and renews his commitment to serve God, Church, country, and community with faith, honor, charity, and unity. Supporting Brother Joseph at the ceremony were PGK Derrick Andrade and PGK Frank Donagher, PFN. Please join us in congratulating SK Joseph Fisher on this important milestone in his journey as a Knight of Columbus. May God bless and guide him as he continues his dedicated service to our parish, council, and community. Vivat Jesus!

Knights Support the Turo-Turo Food Sale
The Turo-Turo Food Sale, hosted by the Filipino American Apostolate (FAA), was a wonderful fundraiser supporting the upcoming San Lorenzo Ruiz Fiesta.
Many of our Brother Knights came out to serve and support the event, including FAA President Chester Palonpon and Grand Knight Roy Carlisle, along with many other Knights who helped behind the scenes or simply came hungry to enjoy and support the delicious Filipino breakfast and lunch offerings.
The response from our parish community was tremendous! The food was so popular that many of the breakfast favorites were already sold out by the end of the first Mass.
Events like Turo-Turo are about more than great food. They bring our parish family together through faith, fellowship, culture, and service while supporting the celebration of San Lorenzo Ruiz, the first Filipino saint and martyr.
We thank the Filipino American Apostolate, our Brother Knights, volunteers, parishioners, and everyone who supported the fundraiser.
Together in faith, together in service, and together as one parish family.
San Lorenzo Ruiz, pray for us!
Vivat Jesus!
