Notes From The Grand Knight
By Ray LeTourneau,
Vivat Jesus
Our trip to see the lugnuts game in
Lansing went very well. If you can
go next year you will not regret the
trip. The Honor Guard led the
Bishop onto the field and he threw
out the first pitch. The game had all
the makings of a great family
atmosphere. I want to thank Jim
Ballenger for chairing this event.
We had a tremendous turnout for our
golf outing this year. I want to thank
Cliff Van Overbeke for chairing this
for me. I will be chairing this event
next year along with Denny Owens. I
have already started collecting prizes
for next year. If you can pick up
some donations please bring them to
me as soon as possible. They do not
have to be golf related.
I attended a diocesan meeting in
Mason and the tri-district in Grand
Blanc. I need to thank the officers
who attended with me to represent
our Council. They stressed
membership and the need for having
1st Degrees. We need to recruit 10
new members this year and I know
you won't let me down.
We had great attendance at our
Corporate Communion. Thank you
to the Honor Guard for being there
when I need you. I just wish we had
more people walk in as Families and
all sit together as one big family.
The Council purchased 2 tickets for
the debt reduction raffle for Fr. Bill's
birthday. Let’s all get behind this
raffle and buy tickets.
Sept. 7th is our Family Picnic. It
starts at 1:00 pm. If you want to help
out Sat. & Sun. be there at 10:00 am.
On Sept. 13th & 14th we will be
having our Blitz at all the Masses. I
need to thank Jim Butler for setting
up the speakers for every Mass.
Have you asked your sons or
grandsons to join the Knights. We
will be trying to recruit new
members and passing out to every
person in the parish " How to pray
the Rosary" that has all the new
mysteries listed. You will be asked
to help at whatever Mass you attend.
Oct. 12th after the 10:00 am. Mass
we will have Pancakes for the Parish.
Later that day we will try to host a
euchre tournament.
On Oct. 4th Shirley's husband Bill
will host a bonfire. Come meet all
your friends and have a little fun.
Please keep everyone on our prayer
list in mind. Everyone drive safely
over the holiday.
Fraternally yours,
Ray LeTourneau,
Grand Knight Co. 10170
