From The Desk of the Grand
Knight
Brothers,
It’s my pleasure to introduce you to our
four newest Knights; Paul Byers, Richard
Lemcke, Mike O’Toole and Tim Salata.
Welcome Brothers!
We will need four knights at each mass
on Mother’s Day weekend to help pass
out our Mother’s Day gifts. If you can
help out contact Jose’ Rivera.
Remember June 6th is Justin Miller’s
ordination to the deaconate. We really
should be there to support Justin on this
special day. Hopefully we will have a bus
with twenty seats for us, so if you have
an interest in going let me or Jose’ know.

Insurance Message
Protecting Widows – A Founding
Goal
As a member of this council, you know
how important spouses can be to the
charitable works of the Order. If you’re
married, your wife is probably involved in
a few of the many events that happen
each fraternal year. This support adds
great value and impact to what a council
can achieve.
When the Order was founded in 1882,
Father Michael J. McGivney and the other
brave men were setting out to protect
Catholic families, but especially wives and
children. Today, we remain committed to
this mission by offering insurance
products and fraternal benefits designed
with that goal in mind. One specific policy
rider that you may not know about is
called Spousal Waiver of Premium. This
rider is unique to the Knights of Columbus
philosophy of helping our widows.
This rider is available on most permanent
and Discoverer plans purchased at
standard rates by a member and his wife
on the same day. When both spouses
apply, the rider provides for waiver of
premiums on the spouse’s contract in the
event of the insured’s death. Best of all,
for members and spouses ages 18 to 60,
this waiver can be added for no charge.
The rider stays in effect until the spouse
attains age 65 or certain other triggering
events occur.
Our products are designed with your
needs and budget in mind. With a solid
portfolio of life insurance, long-term care,
disability income and retirement products,
the Knights of Columbus can help you
meet all of your financial goals. To learn
more about these solutions, contact me
today.

Prayer to Stop Abortion
Oh God, forgive us for the atrocities of abortion. Forgive those who have
the chance to help the unborn but turn their backs.
Breathe the wisdom of the Holy Spirit into our lawmakers and judges.
Give courage and strength to those who must choose whether to
terminate a pregnancy.
Give all of us the stamina to fight those who advocate abortion. Help us
to respect the Sanctity of Life as an extension of Your Divine Love, We ask this as always,
through Jesus Christ, Our Lord, Amen.
