10/31/2020

0 Comments

 
A big thank you to our Brother and Sir Knight Chip Steinberger who for the second year led #4057's COATS FOR KIDS program.  The schools are MOST APPRECIATIVE of this effort as the coats are needed so very much.

Coats were delivered to Hamilton and Mount Holley Elementary Schools, and WG Rice Middle School. 1.5 HOURs donated to make a difference in so many lives.

Thank you to those who were able to join: Worthy Brothers Tony DeSorbo, Dave DeFour, Tom Kruegler, and Jack Connolly.  Thank you for representing the Council that Rocks!

Worthy Brothers!

We continue to have about 25-30 Knights fully engaged in activities and have been able to provide Charity in the furthering of our Faith and Fellowship and Brotherhood.

What would cause you to want to participate as you have time? What program or interest do you have that would allow your minimal participation that you would like to see? We all joined the Knights for something. Hopefully to surround ourselves with other men that make us better versions of ourselves and to support our Parish Family and our Families better.

A big THANK YOU! to Worthy Brothers Carmine Cicalese and Michael Schwartz for stepping up to support the Parish Pork Dinners! Thank you for your time and talent!

Worthy SK and Brother Chip Steinberger is Leading the Coats for Kids. If you would like to participate please let me know. Because it is elementary school related it is during the work week and time, it may be difficult but is a super worth while charitable cause that is greatly appreciated as it was last year...so if you have time the following is from Brother Chip:

"We are on schedule to deliver coats to the listed schools on Tuesday 27 October starting around noon at Hamilton(POC Hillary Carter-Mann) then to WG Rice(POC Erin Rech) and finally at Mount Holly Elementary(POC Mollie Davis). As indicated we can sort the coats around 1100 or if preferable anytime between now and the 27th. We will be wearing our Council Shirts please. At this point my only concern is the boxes which the coats were shipped, aren’t in the best condition and in case of rain, we may need to haul the boxes in suitable vehicles. I plan to bring scissors, tape and a marker, please let me know if you have question or concerns. Please forward to others, many thanks.
Vivat Jesus
SK Chip"

Additionally the Knights of Columbus Council 4057 will support the St. Patrick Church "Trick or Treat" drive through, led by Worthy Brother Adam Fabbri. Let me know if you are interested. Knights are doing a Safari/Animal Theme...details from Heidi Lynch if you wish to help out:

"Good morning, thank you for agreeing to host a “stop” on the Trick or Treat Drive Thru on Friday, October 30. It’s two weeks from Friday! Currently, there are 7 groups representing the church, they are: The Knights of Columbus, That Man is You, Walking With Purpose, St. Vincent de Paul Society, Life Teen/Edge, Parish Council and the Carlisle Area Family Life Center. I haven’t gotten an exact number from the PATS at the school yet, but I am assuming that they have around 6 or 7 as well. Here are a few things that you need to know:

1. Masks and social distancing required during the event.

2. The Trick or Treating will take place in the PAC parking lot, everyone will stay in their cars and be directed where to go.

3. Please park your personal vehicle in the school parking lot. (You can use your car to drop off supplies, then you will need to move it over to the school lot by 5:30pm.)

4. Set up is available to start at 4:00pm. (I will send you an email with a map of your location before the event.)

5. For safety reasons, please stay in the PAC lot until 8:00pm or until all of the people that are in line by 8:00pm have gone through.

6. Candy will be provided, someone will deliver it to your stop before 5:30pm.

7. Please wear disposable gloves when giving out candy (we will provide) and drop the candy into their bag or bucket, do not let them reach in."

Fraternally yours,

Chuck Bailey

May 2020 Meeting

5/12/2020

Worthy Brothers all,

We are almost at the end of our Fraternal year…time has flown. Despite the pandemic we are such a strong council in programs that we have earned the submission for Columbian Award. We do not do our good deeds for award but to achieve programs that Supreme has determined to me most impactful to our Church Family and qualify for rebates to be used for other good works.

Because we “cleaned up the roster” of past due members we took a large hit in recruitment. Despite that nuance we are not doing very well in recruiting new men. With the new Degree Exemplification, time is only 30 Minutes to be fully Knighted in degrees 1-3. We are men of Faith and Charity and not secrecy, which makes this more impactful and simple in honor of time. Even a full ceremony once we are able is only 35 minutes or so. That being said we need to do a better job in recruitment. Many of us serve on other Parish Committees, Boards, and other Ministries. Surely there are good men you would like to bring into our brotherhood and fraternity. If only a quarter of our 273 men in membership could bring ONE new Knight, I would hope that we could achieve that and not sure why we come up short…I am open to new ideas.

The time in the Fraternal Year for Officer Nominations and Elections will be the focus of our Zoom Council Business Meeting, This Thursday, May 14th at 7PM. The last meeting thanks to Brother John Wargins was a success.

If you would like to be nominated for an Officer Position, then please respond to this email. I have contacted our Officer Corps and all members are wiling to give another year in position should there be no other nominations.


The Knights of Columbus Slate of Officers for Council 4057vfor consideration and voting should there be no nominations from the floor at the May 14th Zoom meeting:

Section 2. (Election of officers is the first item under New Business.) The election of officers shall be by ballot and a majority of all votes cast shall be necessary to elect. When only one candidate is proposed for a particular office and no further nominations have been made from the floor, the presiding Grand Knight (The Election Chairman) shall declare the individual elected by acclamation. (Members nominated from the floor must be present and accept the nomination or in case of an excused absence, present their acceptance of the nomination in writing. A nomination does NOT require a second and a member can nominate himself.)

Elections are to be conducted in accordance with Robert’s Rules of Order. Brother John Wargins will host the meeting and a voting icon will be included. Only members in good standing may participate.

Thursday’s 7PM meeting Will be on Zoom. Please contact me for the link.

    SAINT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
