DEAR BROTHER KNIGHTS!

Let me wish you and your family a Happy and Healthy New Year! I hope that your Christmas and New year's celebrations were joyous one spent with loved ones and friends. As I reflect on the past year, I am grateful for all of the blessings that God has bestowed on my family and me. As your Grand Knight I am blessed with leading a Council such as ours, our active council members always do what is necessary to support our Parishes and our Diocese as a Catholic Brotherhood based upon the principles of Charity, Unity Fraternity and Patriotism. We are dedicated to a faithful and unparalleled service to Church, our Community, and our Youth. We should be proud to be members of such a Council and I feel that our Council is one of the finest in the order.

I want to express my sincere thanks to all the Knights who work so hard (and you know who you all are) day after day to keep our Council functioning. Our 2016 events were very successful, we did well and were able to make a difference for many. I hope to see you at our meetings and also at our social functions. Please keep in mind that we always need help in our Council and any time that you can spare is greatly needed and appreciated. We are looking for new members and I ask that you please speak with someone you know about joining. May God Bless you and yours!

Roger O. Phillips, Grand Knight
