To my Worthy Brother Knights and their Families,

A special thank you to everyone in council 953 for your vote of confidence to lead this council a second consecutive year. I am humbled, honored, and excited to serve you again. We have many returning officers and directors as well a couple of new ones, who will with out a doubt, bring fresh perspectives and ideas to our council. To those officers/ directors returning, thank you for continuing to share in what will most certainly be a great year. To those new, welcome and learn from the guidance of those before you. Our council is rich in history and we must lead with wisdom, integrity &  passion.

Our Deputy Grand Knight Fred Struck and I are working feverishly to complete our councils calendar by next month. We will have our routine dinners with a couple of new events added. If you’d like to get involved with chairing an event please do not hesitate to contact us. We are always looking for new knights to get actively involved. We will also introduce a revamped web site, look for us on twitter #KofC953 and “like” us on Facebook Knights of Columbus # 953.

It was once said that God does not always called the qualified, but that He always qualifies the called. We were all called to join the K of C, it’s our responsibility to help in any capacity. You can help make this an impactful year. Call a friend to join, invite him to one of our dinners and remember… new potential members eat free. We encourage you to take the 2nd, 3rd and 4th degree, come to our meetings, support our dinners/events or meet with your field agent. There are so many ways to get involved, you just have to be open to letting our Lord work through you. Working together with your fellow Brother knights, we can achieve more.

I’ll end this months message with a conversation I recently had with a returning Brother Knight. He said that he can see the Holy Spirit working through our officers and our council, so much that It prompted him to get involved and to become more active. There are great things in store for all of us as a council, come experience,  come join us.
