In the July 2025 editorial, Editor Robin Lydall reflects on a turbulent year marked by uncertainty under U.S. President Trump's policies, including potential tariffs impacting South African exports and the loss of AIDS funding. Global conflicts continue to cause immense suffering, raising questions about achieving peace and rebuilding lives.
Amid these challenges, Lydall highlights South Africa's beauty and the potential of its people, urging Knights to contribute beyond finances—perhaps by facilitating job opportunities or skill development for the underprivileged. The most significant Church event of 2025 was the passing of Pope Francis and the election of Pope Leo XIV, whose close collaboration with his predecessor inspires confidence in continued Holy Spirit guidance. Knights are called to support the Church's works under the new pontiff, fostering hope and action in uncertain times.
