Last Week's Updates
Congratulations to Brother Gerry Veasey on completing 2nd/3rd Degree Exemplification last Saturday in Conroe. Brother Marty Gibula and the GK made the trip with him. If you have not made a 1st or 2nd/3rd Degree Exemplification lately, you need to try to attend, these ceremonies are a great reminder of what the Knights of Columbus are all about. Gerry's son Garrett is ready to sign up but will have to wait 2 years as he is only 16.
Well the Weather Predicting Persons all had it wrong and God allowed the Work Group composed of Art Hausler, Larry Stryk, Jill Stryk (Brother Larry's Daughter), Blaine Strnadel (17 Year old Son of Brother Jared), Danny Walthall, David Hobson, Michael Speich, Kevin Eades, Scott Burton, and the GK, to complete the Spruce Up Program for the trees along the East side of the CCE Building and 2 trees on the West Front of the Church. There was time, supplies , and crew enthusiasm left to add in the sago palm and larger oak tree at the church into the program. Take a look and see what you think. We are looking at Phase 2 for next Monday - see details below.

May Service Opportunities
On the afternoon of Monday, May 18th starting at 4:00PM we will have a Council work session for the Phase 2 Parish Tree spruce up - which will relate to adding the stone borders to the flower beds at the Rectory. Feel free to show up earlier, I plan to pick up the materials about noon on that day and be there about 3:00PM to start positioning materials for work. After the work is complete a meal will be served for a fellowship session for all workers. We do need a head count to insure sufficient food is ready, so please call Larry (832-520-4044) or Arthur (281-633-1643) The more hands, the better - and quicker the job will get completed.
Council Officer Election time is on us as the new fiscal year approaches. There are several officer positions openings. Please contact Brother Mark Stryk if you have any interest. Officer Elections will take place at the May 26th Council Business meeting Here is the slate as proposed by the Council Trustees:
Installation of Officers will take place on June 27 in the FLC Gym. June Cook is a TBD at this time as far as date is concerned. There is a schedule conflict on June 6th/7th as well as Brother Martinez having rotator cup surgery on June 5th. Discussion is still continuing on his event.
Please look at your calendar and please schedule family and/or your time to support the Parish and Council events.

Pro Life Activities Contact your U.S. Representative (From KofC Supreme) Dear Brother Knight,
The
U.S. House of Representatives will vote this week on H.R. 36, the
Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. This important measure will
ban abortions on unborn children aged 20 weeks or older, based upon
substantial medical evidence that these unborn children can experience
pain. With H.R. 36, Congress will exercise its authority to protect
these vulnerable pre-born children.
However,
while a vote has been scheduled for later this week, successful passage
of H.R. 36 is not assured. H.R. 36 needs your personal support. Please contact your elected congressional representatives today by clicking here. Ask
them to support H.R. 36 with their vote, and encourage your family,
friends, fellow parishioners, and Brother Knights to get involved and
actively support this legislation.
At
the 132nd Supreme Convention in Orlando, we resolved to "speak out to
our elected representatives about the need to enact legislation...to
protect human life." With the upcoming vote on H.R. 36, it is
critical that Congress hears your voice.
Thank you for all you do to promote a Culture of Life. Knights of Columbus Pro-Life Ace Wings - Viewing
the movie "Blood Money" (80 minutes) will serve as three of the five
event requirements. This is a very informative documentary involving
women having had abortions and others previously involved in the
abortion industry who are now Pro-Life. For program description and requirements, click on the following link: http://kc10872.org/AceWingsProgramDescription2014-15.pdf
Abortion is not a Choice, it is a BABY'S LIFE ENDED. Be Pro-Life your Mother was. |
