Grand Knight's Report

The Light at the End of the Tunnel?

As I near the end of my term as Grand Knight, I want to look back at what has transpired in the past 16 months.  This month I want to look at what wasn't acheived.

I had quite a few goals when I became Grand Knight, which many, I feel, have been accomplished (more on that next month).  But a few I haven't accomplished, like getting the newsletter out before each business meeting, or having the Knight and Family of the Month certificates ready for meetings.  I have failed miserably on getting the FTGOTO list out in a timely manner.  I'm sure there are a few more but my memory fails me...

One of my top goals was to engage more Knights, especially those younger ones.  My hope was to have more activities that would encourage them to participate, such as a family picnic that honored our First Responders or a 1st Night celebration of the New Year, geared to families.  While the picnic had to be cancelled due to Florence, very few had signed up before.  In the case of a 1st Night Celebration, there was no interest, so it was dropped.

Other areas where we tried to make changes to attract more Knights - family pricing at Parish Breakfasts and Lenten Dinners, lower prices for the Valentines and St. Pat's dinner dances, and shorter hours for LAMB - did little to increase participation.  We created an online survey asking for ideas that would make volunteering easier or how to attract families and younger Knights, but received few responses.  

We understand the obligations younger Knights have - famiy, work, church, networking - and we certainly don't expect them to make every meeting or event.  But working a LAMB shift for 2 hours, or bringing the family to a breakfast or dinner, seems resonable to expect.  Or volunteering for a job that can be done from home, like helping with the newsletter or FTGOTO or other communications, would help relieve the workload on other Brothers.

Everyone has a different reason for joining the Knights but we all take a pledge to support our Council, Church and Community and make Charity our number one goal.  I ask every Knight, young and old, to recommit themselves to their 1st Degree pledge and get more involved!  Make the coming fraternal year one where YOU make a difference.

Virtus!
I once again ask  every Brother in Our Council, to take the Safe Environment Program training provided by Supreme.  Below is the link and registration code :  
The Registration Code is:   kofcsafe

If you have any contact with minors in the Parish or Community, you should also take the Parish and Diocese  Protecting God's Children  workshop. This 2½ hour program is intended to educate volunteers to recognize and prevent sexual abuse. Preregistration is required. Sign up online at  www.virtus.org.

Please advise Bob Desch when you have completed either training.  He is maintaining a database for the Council.

Congratulations!

LAMB

The fund raising activities of the LAMB Foundation kicked off in April. On April 6 th Council members filled 25 two hour shifts at seven various Harris Teeter stores and collected $40.60 an hour, an all time high in the hourly results. Thank you to the 25 Knights who gave of their time to help. 

On the weekend of April 13 and 14, Knights collected donations after all the weekend masses at St. Matthew, both the main campus and Waxhaw. Again, our thanks to those of you who spent time after mass to participate. We also collected at one Harris Teeter store this past weekend (April 27). Again, our thanks to those who helped. For the month of April donations collected for the LAMB Foundation exceeded $8,600. So we are off to a strong start.
 
As we strive to achieve similar results as were attained last year - $72,000 - we will need everyone's efforts. The next opportunity will be Saturday, June1, when we again have another seven Harris Teeter stores, including Waxhaw, Indian Land, and Wesley Chapel. Please save some time that Saturday to help. It's just two hours of your time that you are asked to give!
 
Thank you for all that you do the help those whom Jesus called the Least Among My Brothers. May God bless all Knights and their families.
 
May God Bless all Knights,
Bob Desch, PGK

NC State LAMB Award!
Division IV Highest Average per Member

At the 2019 KofC NC Sate Convention held last weekend, I was honored to accept the LAMB award for Highest Average per Member in Division IV (Largest Councils). 

This is the 15th year in a row we have collected more than $50,000 with a whopping $72,000 in 2018!  Lifetime collections now surpass 1 million dollars!  WOW!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to Bob Desch and Richard White and all the Knights who helped make 2018 a banner year!  And from what we've done so far this year, we're off to a great start in 2019!  For those who haven't worked a LAMB shift, what are you waiting for?  Get on the band wagon to help the Least Among My  Brethren!


Donated Goods
 
Donated Goods - Highlights for April 2019
A big thank you to all volunteers that help the St. Matthew Donated Goods Ministry!
Next monthly collection of donated goods is Saturday May 11 from 8am until noon.
Volunteers needed for all activities including sorting and packing but especially those that can help load and unload furniture and those that have trucks that can pick up from households that are donating furniture.


April 2019 highlights:
  • Saturday April 13th was our monthly collection Saturday (2nd Sat. of the month) and we had a busy day, as we completed 18 scheduled pickups and over 80 drop offs of donated furniture, clothing and household items
  • The first truck load of donated items from our April 13 collection was delivered to SAFE Again in Young Harris, GA. The truck was driven on Tuesday April 16 by Jerry Carpenter and Bob Kerfonta.
  • Saturday April 13, we donated furniture, household items and clothing for two (2) veterans in conjunction with the Veterans Employee Resource Group (ERG) at UTC Aerospace Systems and Charlotte Bridge Home. The team from UTC delivered and setup the items in the homes of the two (2) veterans.
  • We donated a truck full of clothing and small household items to Monroe Outreach on April 13. They brought a box truck to our Saturday collection. This is now standard operating procedure going forward (rotating between Salvation Army, and Monroe Outreach and possibly Crisis Assistance Ministry)
  • On Thursday April 18 Dr. Rosemary Jackson from the Affordable Housing organization and an individual from the Genesis Program brought a truck and loaded up furniture to help setting up 5 apartments for those in need.
Many thanks to all of our volunteers.

WELCOME to the new Leaders of the Donated Goods Ministry, who will start in May!
Catherine and Kevin Sforza

THANK YOU 
to Randy and Ann Mazur, who have lead the Donated Goods Ministry for six years!

Field Agent Report
 
 
What's your biggest asset? Some of you may say it's your home. Others who own a business may say that's their biggest asset. There may be some who have saved well and put aside a substantial amount of money for retirement in a fund like an IRA or a 401K.
  
But I would suggest that your earning power is your most valuable asset. Consider this: a 35-year-old who makes $50,000 a year will earn $1.5 million dollars before retirement at age 65. That's quite a sum, but consider this: with only a 3% increase in pay each year, that figure grows to nearly 2.5 million dollars before retirement! But...you say, that's all well and good, what are the chances I'm going to become disabled and unable to work? According to United States government statistics a staggering 1 in 4, yes, 25%, of 20-year-olds will become disabled before reaching age 67. According to the Social Security Administration, 95% of those disabilities happen outside the workplace...so worker's compensation will not pay.*

Some companies generously give disability benefits to their employees. If you are one of those lucky ones...congratulations! Now the question is...how long are those benefits payable and how much of your income is covered and how much of that benefit is taxable? Seven of 10 Americans say they would feel a financial pinch in a month or less without their paycheck.**

Fortunately, I can help sort out all these issues. The Knights of Columbus offers a flexible disability income insurance policy. It can be tailored to supplement what you currently have through work or it can stand alone to safeguard your paycheck and provide protection against catastrophe. I can help you design a plan with the right monthly benefit, the right benefit period and all the other variables that go into customizing a plan that is right for you and your family. And our policy pays benefits regardless of whether or not the disability is work related.

So what if your last paycheck was your last paycheck? Let's make sure that doesn't happen by scheduling a time meet and review your specific situation. I know the time will be well spent.

Vivat Jesus!
