All salaam Sir Nobles, Lady Nobles and Sultanas April 2024
GRAND COMMANDERS COMMENTS:
Looking out of my office window on this beautiful, sunny day I am struck by the vagrancies of nature. I remember my brother in law in Massachusetts telling me he could never live in California because he loved having four seasons. I told him that I realized that he had never lived in California so he couldn’t know that we really do have seasonal changes. Especially this year! I have been impatiently awaiting the arrival of Spring. It has been very hesitant and tentative as it finally pushes winter away and blossoms into the glorious season that it is. Slowly with many false starts and stops it has tiptoed in with a day of sunshine followed by cold, wet days until today. Today I look out the window and my yard is lit by a beautiful, warm, sunny sky. The trees and flowers have not waited for Spring to make up its mind and they are in bloom and as green as can be. Why am I going on about this? I just think that we should all thank God for blessing us with another Spring. It has been a long, difficult winter. We have seen many of our friends pass away and they will be sorely missed but God has given us this time to enjoy and to continue to try and do His work here on Earth. Ben Ziri Caravan gives us members the opportunity to work within our community to better the lives of those less fortunate than ourselves. We will meet again to discuss ways to do this at our monthly meeting this coming Thursday, April,18, 2024 at 1pm in the K of C Hall on the Mission San Luis Rey Parish campus. I hope to see you all there.
Tony A. Grand Commander.
