Weekly Updates

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.

With many Delta Church Drives reported (remember to report any membership drive results to SMD Ron Keys) here is where we stand as of October 1st with council growth incentive (Jul 1st to Dec 31st). The top five councils will receive ($150, $100, $75, $50, $25) toward your continued council growth success.

The Supreme Council has announced a “12 Knights by Christmas” incentive for every District Deputy whose District achieves 12 new members from October 1st through December 31st. They will receive a cash award and your District Deputy will recognized by name in the Knightline magazine.

Finally, find time in November to recognize your Brother Knights that have gone on before you. A memorial Mass or other significant gesture at your church is received respectfully by your parishioners.      

Moving forward, embracing change. Vivat Jesus!!!
