March for Life
Letter from Supreme
Good Morning Brothers,
Thanks to everyone that came to help with the March for Life. To a man everyone told me that it was an excellent experience. The following is a thank you email received from Supreme for our help.
Worthy Brothers,
I just wanted to send a huge THANK YOU for your dedicated service to the Order and the pro-life movement last Friday at the March for Life.
With your help we made thousands of people warmer and happier by passing out ~10,000 signs, 4,000 bags, 3,500 hats, and 1,500 pairs of gloves. There are also lots of photos online - even from mainstream news - showing our signs and blue hats. You promoted the Order well.
So many people came up to me, other staff, and volunteers, saying thank you for our work.
I hope to see you again next year, at least to say hi. If you can, bring another member of your council along to ease the load!
You have my contact information, so if you need anything from me or Supreme be sure to email or call.
Thanks again!
Drew Dillingham
Manager, Life Programs
Supreme
Thanks,
Scott K Nale

Knights Member-ship Incentives
Brother Knights
Thanks for your voice. Here is a link to the audio recordings that you participated in at the WV State Convention.
Station ids and prayers are currently being periodically broadcast on LoL Radio stations and on the LoL Radio stream
as well as on affiliate WHMG LPFM 98.7 in Purgitsville.
In addition, your voice recordings of "Why Are You A Knight of Columbus" will be included in a series to be on-the-air in the future.
LoL Radio is also looking for other Brother Knights to audio record for the series as well. I'm sure this will assist with KofC recruitment efforts.
This series will also be made available to other Catholic radio affiliates throughout WV.
And if you would want an announcement of any of your Council events to be broadcast, just email the details to me.
Praise the Lord!




Today began a new journey on the Knights of Columbus’ goal to reach 2,000 ultrasound machines with the installation of #1,001 in Steubenville, OH. Thank you to council 3734 for their great contribution towards saving potentially hundreds or thousands of lives, and to all the other Councils that participated.

STAR TRACKER
Please find your most recent Star Tracker. Everyone please take a look at your Council and make sure this is what you are expecting to see. If not, please let me know ASAP so we can get things resolved.
We are coming down to the wire so please push hard to bring in the last few potentials I know you all have. There is still time to prove that your Council is Star and our Brother Field Agents are ready to help you in this, please reach out to them and support them as they do you.
It's also time to fill our your Columbian Award application. I've attached a copy for your use, so please start filling this out if you have not yet done so. If you have programs that you haven't completed yet, it is acceptable to still put them on the form and send it in.
Thanks,

Hurricane and Floods
Good Evening Brothers,
As we have all seen on the news, Hurricane Michael has hit the southern states pretty hard. I've heard from our State Program Director Mike McDougle that things are very bad down there. For anyone with the means and mission to go provide assistance, please register with Catholic Charities to find your way to the areas in need. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60b0d4da5aa28a7fd0-hurricane
For those unable to assist in person, I encourage you to make donations to the Supreme Disaster Relief Fund. For information on how to donate please see https://www.kofc.org/en/secure/charities/disaster-relief.html
Thank you all for your help on these matters, I know it means the world to those in need.
Attached please find updated information on the Faith in Action program as well as the award application document. Please review how your Council is positioned to win the Columbian award in June and make any necessary changes. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
