IWKnights Corner (Bulletin Insert) for May 26, 2019

Did you know this about the IW Knights of Columbus?

IWKnights' Membership Director Rob Schultz (left) and IWKnight Mark Faller (right).

The Church is stronger if every man is a Knight.  That’s why bishops often make appeals asking men to join the Knights of Columbus.

Knights exist to serve.  But if we are to serve, we need more men.  And we need them now.  We need a man ready to take his first degree.  Next year maybe he’s an inside guard, then a program director.  Perhaps in five years, he is a district deputy and then a state deputy. He is our future.  But maybe his time is limited for several years due to work requirements and/or raising an active family – but he can help with our major charitable fund-raising projects like the Fish Fry or Tootsie Roll/Developmental Disabilities Drive.

Membership growth is the single best indicator of a council’s current success and future health.  Members make the Knights’ charity possible — now and in the future.  Membership in the KofC makes men better Catholics, better husbands, better fathers and citizens.  So, we care a lot about membership.  That’s what this whole issue of Knightline is dedicated to.  Embrace membership growth.  Make it your top priority, and give your council the legacy to last into the future.

Our Membership director is Rob Schultz.  If you are interested in becoming a Knight or even investigating joining our council - or you think your husband, nephew or boyfriend should then please contact Rob at (314) 973-2373 or [email protected]
