Grand Knights Report

My Brothers All

MEMBERSHIP

Well we started out the month of September on the right foot. At our social meeting on September 8, we inducted six new members into the first degree. Let us all welcome John Madey, Federico Montes, Tad Edwards, Michael Fusaro, Father Jozef Fekete, and Father Gabriel Rajendra, who is our Council Chaplin. Then on Saturday September 13, Michael Fusaro, Jim Helper, Wesley Weaver, Fr Jozef and Fr, Raj made both their second and third degrees in the Order.

We continued our membership on September 20 and 21 at the Stewardship Commission Fair. Thanks to the imitative of several members we had 2 parishioners fill out Form 100s and 4 others express interest in the Knights. The names have been turned over to Gary Tadvick and John Carter for follow-up regarding fraternal benefits and membership.

The weekend of September 27 and 28 we will be holding our first session of the Carolina Blitz. Members of the Forth Degree will be present at all the Masses in full Regalia. Members of the council will also be in attendance to meet prospective members, hand out brochures, and answer any questions regarding the Knights of Columbus. It is important that we all get involved in our membership efforts. Remember always to have a Form 100 with you. You never know when someone will seek you out and ask about membership in the Knights of Columbus.

RACE WEEK

If you were at the business meeting on September 22, you already know that through the efforts of Past Grand Knight, Dave Smith, Lowe's Motor Speedway has sent a Certificate of Insurance naming Knights of Columbus Council 7406 as an additional insured for liability in the amount of $1,000,000.00 for sixty-five volunteer shuttle bus drivers. I want to personally thank Brother Dave Smith for a job well done on behalf of the entire council. LET THE RACES BEGIN!!!!!

This fund raising activity can only be as successful as we as a council participate. Don't hesitate to sign up. Many members have signed up. When the call comes, be there help us out so we can help others. The more members of our council that sign up the more revenue will come back to us.

UPCOMING EVENTS

On Saturday October 4 the council will be serving hot dogs, hamburgers and drinks at the Saint Therese Festival. Brother Don Mayer has asked me to solicit some help for the kitchen detail. If you can give a few hours of your time, it would be greatly appreciated. I would have normally called on the usual suspects who work the Pancake Breakfast, but they are already committed for Sunday October 5. That's right Sunday October 5 is Pancake Breakfast. Have you brought your family out to enjoy what has become a very well received event within the Parish Community? Again many thanks to those who make the Pancake breakfast so successful, and a special thanks to Brother Tim Vogel for getting the materials and assembling the two new signs that are placed out in front of the church and PLC announcing the breakfast.

FUND RAISERS

In addition to the October race, we are planning two very special fund raising events. The first is the Spaghetti and meatball extravaganza that will be held on Saturday November 1 at the Parish Life Center after the 5:30 p.m. Mass. Make plans to attend with your entire family. It promises to be a great time. Tickets will be on sale shortly.

The second fund raising event will be our New Years Eve party. Event chairman Brother John Bigiardi is starting the planning of the menu and activities for this anticipated celebration. The evening's party will be held in the overflow room in the church building. 

There will be a maximum of 180 tickets sold. The Parish Life Center is unavailable for our use on New Years Eve because the Religious Ed Program will be sponsoring an event for the youth at the same time.

IN OUR PRAYERS

We have been asked to pray for the following people. Please remember them not only at Mass, but during those quiet moments when you are talking to God, one on one.

Let us pray for: Marion Reilly, William Reilly, Paul Cunningham, Brian Winters, George & Shirley Vogel (Tim Vogel’s parents, George is a 4th Degree Knight, Bath, NY Council) and Mike Dorian of Council #39 If you know of a brother or family member who is sick or in distress, please let us know so that we can add them to our pray list.

Vivat Jesus
Ed Kane, Grand Knight
