I Need YOU! Brother Knights we have now entered the busiest time of the fraternal year for your’s truly: Super Cash Bonanza time! The theme for this year’s campaign is I Need You! That’s right, the Charity Brothers are back for one more attempt at a Million Dollars in Sales. We have a whole new video which we premiered at the District Deputy Meeting in January and we received great reviews so I hope you’ll enjoy it - and my brothers in the Arch, I know you will help put me over the top this year. Ticket distribution is this Saturday in the archdiocese. Details can be found on page four of this issue. Help me to help you to help our charities here in the Arch. Beacons of Light is in full swing now and it’s not too late to establish a round table at the parishes in your family which you may or may not already currently service. The Form #2629 available on the Supreme website is simple. All you need to do is list the members of your roundtable team, often they will be members of that under served or sister parish. Then meet with father to nd out if he has any needs at that particular church. It’s that easy and establishing round tables helps us as a jurisdiction reach the Supreme Circle of Honor. The Greater Cincinnati Chapter Degree Team is o ering their services to present an Exempli cation of Charity, Unity and Fraternity at your council or
parish. So many have asked for the return of live degrees and this is your opportunity to schedule one for your candidates. Believe me they do an excellent job and it takes a lot o your shoulders. Contact Jim Klatte for scheduling dates at: jimklatte@yahoo.com or call him at (513) 490-3511. The rst Wednesday of February I have the incredible honor of presenting the Ohio Charity Foundation Catholic student/high school scholarship checks. I will also be presenting a check at the upcoming Dayton Chapter meeting on the third Wednesday of this month. Submissions were down again this year. This is an excellent program to help students a ord a Catholic education. The information and applications are available by visiting the state website starting September 1st of each year and applications to the program are due to chairman PSD Robert Collins by November 15th each year. Finally, be on the lookout for information on the State Campout this year in our very own Celina. Most importantly thank you brothers for all that you do in your communities, parish families and throughout the archdiocese for Charity, in Unity, and with Fraternity. Michael J. Felerski State Treasurer
