Worthy Knights and Brothers,

On behalf of your New Hampshire State Council, Sue and I want to wish you a Happy New Year’s Day.

Some of you may not have read last week’s important information regarding our status so far this year and looking forward to 2020. So here is an updated version through December 27^th.

Worthy Knights and Brothers,

“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savoir, who is Christ the Lord” [Luke 2:11]

On behalf of your New Hampshire State Council, Sue and I want to wish you a Joyous Christmas Day.

Christmas is two days away! It is a time to rejoice in the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ! It Is also a time to reflect on the past six months of the fraternal year.

Worthy Knights and Brothers,

This is the last full week before Christmas with December 25^th falling on a Wednesday this year. Just a reminder that there is a final calendar opportunity for any councils that have not availed themselves of the Council Growth Training offered by Regional Growth Trainer Steve Cohen (See Information Below).

Worthy Knights and Brothers,

This week-end was the State Council District Deputy Mid-Year Meeting. District Deputies from New Hampshire met and discussed the progress made this year in their respective councils toward attaining positive results of inviting new members to our councils. Council efforts through Delta church drives and through evangelistic expressions through our Faith in Action programs have resulted in 91 new members. Through December, two different councils have jumped onto this updated list. One month to go. Your council can do likewise. So leading into December the member growth incentive leader list is as follows.

Worthy Knights and Brothers,

The week-end before Thanksgiving I was as the SD Mid-Year Meeting. The Supreme Council’s message focused on the reasons behind Council Growth, and Faith in Action programming. State Ceremonials Director Joel Plante was invited down on the Sunday to view changes to the Degree Program. This coming week-end our State District Deputies will be meeting for our DD Mid-year Meeting on these, and other important information that they will be imparting to you as they visit your councils.

Worthy Knights and Brothers,

On behalf of your New Hampshire State Council, Sue and I want to wish you Happy Thanksgiving. We hope that your week-end is filled with family, friends, as you reconnect with those both close and those far away. Thank you for what you do to support the Knights of Columbus, your council, your church, and the Bishops and Priests.

Worthy Knights and Brothers,

District Deputies need your assistance with reporting information back to the State & Supreme Councils. Two things you can help them with this month.

• What are the dates of your council’s two membership drives, this fraternal year?
• How does your council do 1^st Degrees for your new incoming members?

Remember: District Deputies are available to assist you with issues that come up in your councils.

Knights and Brothers,

This Veterans Day we remember those that have gone before us, sacrificing for our country. When you meet and thank veterans, try to take a moment to really talk to them, it will be rewarding to both of you.

New Hampshire State Council – Recruitment Incentive (July 1^st through Dec 31^st) (8 weeks left).

Knights and Brothers,

As we move our clocks backwards, we still need to more forward with our Faith in Action plans and our semi-annual membership drives. Your District Deputies have been tasked with reaching out to you on both. Hosted by Cl #7533 Alton two weeks ago, State Membership Director (SMD) Ronald Keys and State Program Director (SPD) Michael Pitaro have presented you will opportunities to embrace both objective at our Fall Quarterly Meeting. If you missed this meeting, take heart. We are all available to assist you.

Knights and Brothers,
