Dear
Brother Knights,
Let
me take this opportunity to wish each of you and your dear family a happy and
joyous Christmas. I would also like to wish you a healthy, peaceful and a
successful New Year!
At
this time of the year, please also take a moment from your busy daily work and
social life to remember and pray for our deceased brother knights and members
of their families who have passed away during the past 12 months and for our
knights who are seeking new opportunities in the work place.
On
a separate note, what is of particular interest to you and what you would like
to do by way of giving back to the community; please reach out to the Deputy GK
Patrick Bajcar and/or me and let us know which particular area of the council
you would like to be a participant and volunteer.
We
need to increase member participation in our monthly general meetings and my
goal is to see the percentage increase by 20%. I believe we are on the right
track in trying to achieve this mark and I am encouraged by your participation
in the past few meetings of the new fraternal year and most importantly when we
touched the 100 mark at the November 19 Fraternal Activity Night (FAN).
Finally,
thank you to the Executive Members and Directors for all your good work since
assuming office in July. As we enter the New Year and second half of our
Fraternal Year, I believe we are well positioned to make this yet another
successful year for our council.
Peace
and goodwill,
Edwin
D'Cruz
Grand
Knight
