Memorial Event
Worthy GK,
I am writing this as an interim
report for tonight's meeting as I shall be at the
annual POA meeting for Pecan Grove from 6:30 pm., so I
may or may not be able to attend till later. I
will be at next week's meeting.
Those on the distribution list and
I have met and made the following arrangements:
Sixteen invitations were sent by
Ken to all the widows, and their families, that we
could find listed in the parish directory on the
parish database and to those we know.
On November 29 we will start to
chase up those where there was no reply.
Parish bulletin announcements have
been given in for the weekends of November 1/2 &
8/9
Pulpit announcements have been
agreed by Father for both weekends.
I ask the GK to put out a news
bulletin to all our council members on Thursday
November 6 reminding all.
The CCE rooms have been reserved
for: Saturday Nov. 8 for set up and for Sunday Nov. 9
for the luncheon. We have to be clear by 3:00 pm
for the next meeting there.
Bob has kindly offered to cook
chicken pot pies for lunch, and the SSMM have offered
to produce desserts.
Brothers will be asked to bring a
side dish.
As the budget has $250 in it for
the Memorial Mass, may we ask that Father is given a
$50 stipend and the $200 is allocated to pay for food.
We are asking all council KCs to
attend with their families, but we expect that only a
few will actually come.
Sunday

followed by the Blessing
by Father
01:00 pm Near the end
of the meal, Bob will offer the widows the
services of the Knights to
help where they state they need
help. A form will be
given to each for this purpose.
01:30 pm Start clear up
I do not expect this schedule to be
kept to.
The phoning of all the council
members will be attempted in the week before to
request attendance and help.
With God's blessings,
Paul Metcalf
