St. Catherine’s Knights Council will have a 2^nd and 3^rd Degree this Sunday, November 22nd.

Priests’ Appreciation is coming. We will be working on a time frame for the dinner. Leroy is great for getting the Bishop there. January has been the usual time but, this is a bit late to schedule it then.

Ladies Appreciation, is usually around Valentine’s Day so what better than the 2010 Ladies Appreciation to fall ON Valentine’s Day! We will be looking to schedule that in February, Valentine’s Day is a Sunday.

Tomb of the Unborn at Calvary Cemetery. Phil is spearheading this through his councils to make a donation in the name of the man who will be doing the work to restore the statue and the plaque for the Tomb of the Unborn.

• Maybe we can get some members that are not involved in the next Pancake Breakfast. We have a lot of fun doing it. I encourage each member to call one of the members to help in the next activity.
• We do need to get new members to replenish our ranks! Carry some form 100’s around with you! Give them out at Mass and Church activities. If you don’t have any, get two or three and keep them in the car.
• Encourage new members and transfers and make ourselves known.
• Knights of Columbus have given billions of hours giving to the community and the Church. We don’t have to do everything but, get members involved in one or two activities that they have not been active in before.
• Make certain forms are turned in on time and work on membership.
