Deputy Grand Knight Report
Deputy
Grand Knight Report
Our
St. Patrick’s Day celebration was a big success. Thanks to everyone involved especially the
cooks and folks who cleaned up after the event.
Upcoming events include the Knights of Columbus North Carolina State
Convention which will be held in Historic New Bern this year on May 15-17,
along with Race Days on May 14 – 17 and May 28 -31 this year and the more
volunteers we get to drive the buses the more money we make for working the
race. If you have not participated in
the driving of a bus at the race track come and join us for a really good time.
We need your help. Contact Brother Charlie
Dow. Also, nominations for Council
elections have begun and will be on going through our elections in June. Please consider running for one of our
positions.
LAMB
is coming soon and so please plan to help us as this
is our fundraiser to help those in our community. In the past years your turn out has been
great and again this year we ask you to support us again during our LAMB
drives. When you get that call be ready
to sign up. If you don’t get a call it
may be because we do not have a good telephone number for you and need you to
tell us how to contact you.
Again,
remember the Knights lead the Rosary before the 1st & 3rd
Saturday 5 PM Mass. Most times there are not enough Knights present to
participate and we have to use parishioners to recite the rosary. I would ask all of you to make a special
effort to participate in one of these two days each month. Brother Joe Nelli will be more than happy to fit you into his schedule.
If
all registered members of our Council would volunteer to work just ONE of our projects each year we would
have more than enough help. If you are
not volunteering please considered talking to one of the Knights and see what
activity you can get involved in. Attached is a form that will allow you to
provide us with updated information for our records. This will also give you an opportunity to
tell us what activities you would be willing to work and give us a pool of
volunteers to staff each project with Knights who want to work on that
particular project. Please complete the form as soon as possible and return it
to us.
