Memorial
Day Mass -
The Annual Memorial Day Mass sponsored by the

permitting, the Mass will be held outdoors;
suggest bringing lawn chairs.
Prior to the Mass, U.S. and Irish flags are placed
on each gravesite; meet at the Old Hall at 7:00 am;

AOH Honor Guard and Irish Piper will lead our
priests and congregation on a procession throughout
the Cemetery for the blessing of the graves.

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 !!!
