GRAND
KNIGHT'S MESSAGE
|
|
This past month we were pleased to welcome three new members to Council 1580. They are Brian Buehne, Kevin Goring and Paul Ermer. As you encounter these brother Knights, please greet them and make them feel welcome.
As I prepare this message, four Knights and their Ladies from our council will be making plans to attend the K. of C. Illinois State Convention in Chicago. Thanks to the efforts of many hard-working, record-keeping Brothers, I'm sure we will have a good showing due to everyone doing their
part.
This month the Knights will again have their food stand at the Highland Schweizerfest. We will
set up our stand at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, June 11th. Thanks in advance to any member that could be there to lend a hand in any way. Included in this Newsletter is a work list for both Saturday and Sunday. There are six shifts. The workers are assigned alphabetically. Please check the list for your name and shift time. If you are unable to make it at the assigned time, fell free to join another shift when convenient for you. I look forward to seeing all of you at the
Schweizerfest.
The Corporate Communion for June will be held at St. Paul Church on June 20th at the 9:30am Mass. Coffee and doughnuts will be served on the lawn behind the rectory after Mass. Hope to see many of you and your families there .
The following Sunday, June 27th, we will hold our Installation of Officers. Social hour starts at 5 p.m. with dinner to follow.
Hope everyone has a fun and safe summer!
Jim Plocher,
Grand Knight |
