Grand Knight Report:

I would like to wish all our Brother Knights and families a very Merry Christmas season and a happy New Year!

Our November meeting started out with our memorial mass in honor of our Brother Knights that have past before us. I would like to thank Father Jim for helping keep their memory in our hearts and minds.

We had some complaints about the toilets not working well, or some were not very handicapped friendly. After looking into the situation we decided to replace all the toilets in the building.

We had a request to donate the turkeys for the community Thanksgiving Day dinner. We donated $300.00 for the turkeys.

The Five loaves food shelf started a drive last month and was looking for canned goods or cash. We decided to donate $300.00.

After the disaster in the Philippines, our Supreme council suggested helping this country with a very rich Catholic history. We voted to send $500.00 through the Church’s relief fund for the Philippines.

We will be in need of a chairman for the upcoming free throw contest. It does not take much time and is a very enjoyable activity, please let me know if you are interested in helping out.

We had another big winner of our Bingo Jackpot on the 24th of November, it was $1,525.00. We invite you to come out and try your luck!

Dec 29th we will have a 5th Sunday and will serve doughnuts and coffee after the 9:00 mass. We could use some help setting up and cleaning up afterwards.

DUES & RAFFLE TICKETS: Dues are $20 and should be mailed to Pat Earley at 1453 County Road GG, New Richmond.  Better yet, you can pay your dues and receive your 2014 membership card at the December meeting. PKD (Penny a Knight a Day) supports Catholic Schools throughout the Diocese, including St. Mary’s.  To support PKD, include an extra $ 3.65 with your dues.

The State Charity Raffle has been a great success over the years. Please do your part again this year. Tickets are $5.  $2 goes to our local charity fund and $3 to the State fund. The $50,000 prize makes them an easy sell. Pat Earley is chairman. contact Pat for more tickets, and you can return stubs and money with your dues if you wish.

Bingo   is the major money maker for our council; we will need help on Sunday nights and the last Friday night of each month. We would also love to see you and your families show up and try to win some of the big money we give out every session.

New Babies
Scott and Mindy Milich became the parents of a baby boy, Caleb Michel on November 8, 2013. Caleb weighed in at 5 lbs. 11 oz. Congratulations!

Pat and Sarah Becker became the parents of a baby girl, Lucy Lynn on November 18th, 2013. Congratulations!

Supreme Family of the Month:
Be sure to congratulate Doug Mill’s family on being drawn one of the Supreme family’s of the month.

Keep them in your prayers:                                                      
Our brother, Don Schoenherr had surgery on his back; please keep him in your prayers, as he recuperates.  

Squires
The Squires are still looking for young men to join their ranks, if you have a son or know of a Catholic young man, please encourage them to join. They have been meeting on the 1st Sunday @ 5:00 pm.  Please contact Tony Kilian or Kevin Lorenz.

Bell Ringers
I was asked if the Knights would help ring bells for the Salvation Army again this year. They have an online sign up to make scheduling very easy. Please go to:  www.ringbells.org
