For Greater Glory  will be in theaters June 1.  Supreme Knight Carl Anderson is encouraging all to see (see KnightLine publication, April 2012, Volume 29, number 4.)  "For Greater Glory is a powerful film that provides a compelling account of a forgotten era of our continent's history. In celebrating the centrality of religious freedom and man's need for God, it tell a story of enduring relevance, and is a  'must-see' viewing for all who care about faith and liberty today."

Council Members –

 

Thanks to the efforts of our Brothers from our Council 8600 we are very close to reaching this year's Recruitment Goal of 31. As Chancellor and Director of Membership I ask each one of you to help in making our goal by recruiting one member before mid June. Yes we can do it...you can do it. Ask your neighbor, your friend from Church, the one sitting next to you at Church.

As our Worthy Grand Knight Sharp said, "We are not shutting down our recruitment effort. We are going to keep pushing toward that goal."
Lets show our WGK that we can do it... all it takes for each one of you to bring ONE candidate before the fraternal year ends.

The fraternal year is almost over, however we still have time and there are plenty of 1st degree exemplifications on schedule for June, as follows:

11 June @ St. Raymond's Parish Council # 2846 - Springfield
21 June @ Mt. Vernon Council # 5998 - Springfield
27 June @ Holy Family Council # 6831 - Leesburg

If you are succesfull please provide me via email his name, telephone number and email so we can get in touch with him. We can have him sign the Form 100 before the degree. Our goal is to have PGK Hovan, Recruitment Committee Chair, read him at the 5 June Council meeting and be ready for the exemplification to meet the mid June schedule.

Let's make it happen......RECRUIT one new member before 5 June.

Vivat Jesus !!!
