Notes From The Grand Knight
By Ray LeTourneau, GK.
Vivat Jesus
On Feb. 2nd, I was at Holy
Family in Grand Blanc to help with
the district free-throw contest. We
had 3 participants from our Council
contest win the district competition
and move on to the next level.
Congrats to all our kids at Holy
Redeemer.
In Detroit at a Dinner
honoring Fr. Swiat as our State
Chaplain we received an award for
achieving our membership quota.
We are doing super so lets keep it
up. Hopefully we can get many new
Knights from our blitz that just
concluded a couple of weekends ago.
The health of our council depends on
always getting more Knights in our
order. Have you ever asked your
sons or friends to join our council?
As you know by now we
have pledged $10,000.00 to Fr. Bill
for debt reduction of the Family Life
Center. Fr. Bill asked us to Man the
doors for a parish pledge drive. I
want to thank all of you who
volunteered to help hand out pledge
cards the weekend of the 23
rd
.
Thanks to everyone who
participated in our Corporate
Communion that was held on Feb.
16th. We had a chance to show what
the Knights are about.
Fr. Bill asked us to help
support the Mardi Gras debt
reduction party. We cannot expect
people to come to our events when
we do not support parish functions.
Our Fish Frys start on March
7th and continue all through Lent.
That's 7 in a row Brother Knights so
we need a lot of help. Be generous
with your time because this is how
we fund all our projects that we do
through the year.
Remember March 30th we
are hosting a major degree at the
Family Life Center. This is a chance
for our council to shine and show
what we can do. All our 1st degrees
should be there as candidates for the
2nd and 3rd degree. Our council will
also host a 1st degree and I know
what a great job that they will do for
us.
Please contact our insurance
man whenever you have questions
on the KofC plans. Also please
return his calls whenever he leaves a
message. Our insurance man is
named Kevin Patterson. His phone #
810-695-6352.
In closing please keep
everyone on our sick list in your
prayers daily.
Fraternally yours,
