From a Cardinal Ratzinger speech just
before he became Pope:
"Our greatest need in the present historical moment is people who
make God credible in this world by means of the enlightened faith
they live. The negative testimony of Christians who spoke of God but
lived in a manner contrary to him has obscured the image of God and
has opened the doors to disbelief. We need men who keep
their eyes fixed on God, learning him what true humanity
means. We need men whose intellect is enlightened by the light of
God, men whose hearts are opened by God, so that their
intellect can speak to the intellect of others and their hearts can
open the hearts of others. It is only by means of men who have
been touched by God that God can return to be with mankind."

about our council
Originally named the Ellicott City
Council, we were founded in 1994 through the efforts of a group of men at
the Church of the Resurrection. In 1997 the members decided to change our
name to Resurrection Council, to more closely associate ourselves with our
home parish. Since its founding, the council has participated in numerous
parish activities including the annual Bull Roast. We have also started
new parish activities such as the annual Children's Easter Egg Hunt.
council meetings
The Council meets on the first
Thursday (at 7:30) and third Monday (at 8:00) of the month in the
Conference Room of the Parish Center.

Our Evolution
When our organization began, in order
to help each other, our members "passed the hat" to assist families of
deceased members. Soon, however, this became impossible, as the number of
our members grew.
Out of this simple process, we've evolved into a modern, dynamic insurance
organization, and offer a wide variety of products to suit virtually
everyone's needs.
