The Echo - Knights of Columbus
The Father Funcken Council #1504 & Assembly THE ECHO Oct. - Dec. 2012 Volume 8, Issue 1 Grand Knight’s Greeting Our New Home ... A New Beginning On August 30th board members signed papers and received the keys to our modest and sustainable new home. After 2½ years of determination, the hard work of the Relocation Committee came to fruition. Our members of the Corporation Board spent much additional time this summer to ensure a smooth transaction, and many of our active members assisted in the initial move to our new home. We are finally home, a new beginning. Inside this issue: 2 • Chaplain’s Message 3 • D.G.K.’s Message • Firefighter Combat Challenge 4 • Spaghetti Dinner • Christmas Spin & Win 5 • Foundation Report 6 • A New Beginning • Children’s Christmas Party 7 • Fourth Degree Report • Letter from your Advocate 8 • Golf Tournament • 2013 Trip Draw 9 • Wedding Anniversaries • In Memoriam • Keep Them In Your Prayers SU BM I SS IO N D EA DL IN E f o r t h e n ext E CHO: December 1st, 2012 GRAND KNIGHT tel: 519-957-1083 [email protected] There is still a lot of work to be done, but we are well on our way to not only settling into our new facility, but also defining our identity at our new address. To the many people involved we thank you for bringing it all together as we enter our new era in our council’s history. I encourage our entire membership to come out to our various meetings to see the new building and to get involved in existing programs and to help set up new ones. Now that we have a home again we have a tremendous opportunity to enrich our council and add to our already rich history. It is the members who truly make this council what it is and we need everyone to make this happen. The news of our move has also reached Bishop Crosby. He was genuinely excited and asked for an invitation to see our new home requesting a visit. Honoured by this request, our executive is now making plans to have Bishop Crosby visit on Saturday November 10th, where he will bless our new home. We will be updating our website and sending out email alerts with more details as they become available. I hope to see many members come out for this event. Our Council began our fraternal year with our first council event. Our annual Golf Tournament was on September 11th. Although it was a smaller event this year, it was still a success. We were able to raise $2500 for the Children’s Wish Foundation. Many thanks to all the participants, sponsors and organizers for making this the great event it is. Plans are already under way for next year’s Tournament and we welcome anyone who would be interested in getting involved. Moving forward our council will continue its involvement with the Kitchener Firefighters on October 13th, participating in their combat challenge. Plans have also begun for our next Spaghetti Dinner, which will be held at St Joseph’s Parish on December 1. This event we will be combining the fun of our past Feather Parties, so we hope to see many of you attend as we raise funds for St Joseph’s. This is really just the beginning. Now that we have a new home and a base of operation we can be a more active and vibrant council again. It begins with you. It begins with an idea, participation and activity. I invite all of you on this journey. Come out, share and be part of it all. Before we know it Christmas will be upon us. Since the next issue of the Echo will not be out till the New Year, I want to extend my sincerest wishes to all members for a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from my family to all of yours.

Two and one-half years of cultivation, and that produced a grand harvest, a new home for our council. The Most Reverend David Douglas Crosby, OMI, Bishop of Diocese of Hamilton will bless our new home on Saturday, November 10, 2012. It will definitely be a family event. I would like to thank all the Relocation Committee members: Brian Hughes, Dave Obermeyer, Brian Schmalz, Reinhart Schreiter and Gary Megaffin for their efforts over the last two and one-half years to find a new home for our council. Prayers to St. Jude and St. Anthony were definitely heard. Brothers, please come out and join your other brothers at the next Executive or General Meeting to explore our new digs, rekindle some old friendships and make some new friends. The up-coming 2013 Cars Draw campaign is quickly approaching and the success can mostly be attributed to the commitment, dedication and hard work of all the volunteers that manned the mall and/or purchased their own tickets. Your efforts totaled over 5,000 in ticket sales which resulted in over $8,000 raised for charity. As the incoming chair, I will continue to strive to carry on the tradition of strong sales and will solicit the assistance of former volunteers and new volunteers. If you wish to help with mall sales or just want a book of tickets for yourself please call me at (519) 880-3690. Finally, from me, my wife Lynda and my girls, Jennifer and Emma to your family, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Let’s keep the Christ in Christmas. Brothers, let’s sow the seeds of charity so that we may reap the rewards in years to come.

PA G E 6 THE ECHO VOLUME 8, ISSUE 1 A New Beginning for Kitchener Knights of Columbus Council 1504 A new era has begun as Council 1504 held its first Executive Meeting on Tuesday, September 4, 2012 at our new home at 797 Guelph Street in Kitchener. It took the Relocation Committee, aided by members of The Corporation, twoand-a-half years of searching for premises that would suit the needs for K of C activities. We believe our new residence has all the features and characteristics that give Council 1504 the opportunity to return to full participation in its charitable endeavours. This property will also offer the prospect for families of K of C members to become involved and enjoy outdoor activities and events in a park-like setting. The real estate transaction was successfully concluded and all City Hall prerequisite approvals have been obtained. Kitchener Columbus Co-operative Inc. took possession of the new property on Thursday, August 30, 2012. We are looking forward to the anticipated blessing of the premises by Bishop Douglas Crosby O.M.I. who has expressed a personal interest in visiting Council 1504. General meetings now continue at 797 Guelph Street, Kitchener at 7:30 p.m., every third Tuesday of the month. Your attendance and participation is welcomed and encouraged as we eagerly look forward to a new era for Kitchener Knights of Columbus Council 1504. -Gary Megaffin A Big Thank You From Council 1504 For over 100 years the Kitchener Knights of Columbus have been known as an organization that was counted on to aid those in need in our community. When Council 1504 began their search for a new home, it became apparent this task required professional skill to aid the Knights in their quest. With the assistance of the Ted Scharf Royal Lepage Real Estate office, and in particular, Mr. Terry Yates, commercial and residential property specialist, Council 1504 was successful in purchasing their new premises. For over two years, Terry tirelessly worked on our behalf using his knowledge and expertise. His guidance enabled the K of C to make the proper decisions that were in the best interests of Council 1504. Terry can be reached at Scharf Royal Lepage Realty at 519-747-2040. - Gary Megaffin IN-HOME CLEANING SERVICES Taking care of your cleaning needs – dusting, vacuuming, floors, bathrooms, kitchens.

VOLUME 8, ISSUE 1 THE ECHO PA G E 7 Fourth Degree Report Father Funcken Assembly 0866 On July 22nd our Assembly held its annual Summer Bar-B-Q at the home of Sir Knight Chris Kleisath, PFN and his wife, Barb. On behalf of all Sir Knights and their ladies who attended I would like to thank our hosts for a fantastic time. We all enjoyed the food, refreshments, swimming pool and, of course, the company. What made it a special event also was that our new Faithful Friar, Father Tom Moisan was able to attend. Father Tom is presently the pastor of St. Teresa’s Church in Kitchener and a 25-year member of Bishop Reding Assembly in Oakville, Ontario. We look forward to his spiritual guidance and words of wisdom in our upcoming meetings this fall.

Father Tom Moisan Dear Council Members, I would like to begin by thanking the members and executive of Council 1504 for giving me such a warm welcome after moving here last year. I am excited to be on the executive as Advocate this year and look forward to taking on my duties. I have a few announcements regarding activities that I will be organizing/monitoring while in this position. First of all, we will be implementing some new rules at the General Meetings as guided by Robert's Rules of Order. As per the Rules and Laws of the Order, we are given guidelines of how meetings are to be run and we will be implementing these rules beginning in the September General Meeting. I will be giving a presentation at this meeting of how the new rules will work and what changes are being made. I will also be contacting the parish pastors under council 1504 and making presentations at each parish regarding the Round Table Program. This is a wonderful program which can help us assist in each of our parishes and help the pastors with their needs. Lastly, I am organizing a pro-life rosary which will be said once a month at either the Grand River Hospital main site or the Freeport Health Centre. This is a peaceful private prayer group and does not involve confrontation. Simply, we will meet once a month during a lunch hour to pray the rosary for the unborn at the hospital. The exact times are not set yet but I will be letting the council know as soon as the details are worked but everything should be rolling for October. If you are interested in any more information regarding these three items or would like to help out, please feel free to email me at [email protected], and I will be happy to help you. Sincerely, Chris Pugh Advocate, Council 1504 PA G E 8 THE ECHO VOLUME 8, ISSUE 1 Council 1504’s Annual Joe Grygaski Golf Tournament We held our annual Golf Tournament on Sunday, September 9th at Rebel Creek Country Club with 52 golfers participating.
