Grand Knight’s Report: June 2019

Posted on by

Brother Knights,

As this fraternal year comes to a close, I find a great sense of gratitude for all of the support from my brother knights in our council, district and state. This was my first time serving as grand knight and I was truly blessed to have the guidance from so many brother knights with experience as past grand knights. I look forward to opportunities to continue to serve this council, our parishes, and our state with all of you in the next fraternal year.

There were three brother knights who served as officers this fraternal year who will unfortunately be moving away. Special thanks to outside guard Julio Vazques, trustee P.J. Lyons PGK, and trustee John Krumpos PGK for their service and support, especially in the 2018-19 fraternal year. Each of you will always have a home here with our council and know that you go with our prayers.

Vivat Jesus,
James Valenzuela,
Grand Knight
