Grand Knight’s Report – March 2024
Worthy Brother Knights,
I hope that you all are doing well this Lent. It has been a fast start to the year and we are now just a few weeks from Easter. During this time of reflection I wanted to reach out to all of you. There are so many of you that obviously value being a Knight that you continue to pay your dues year after year. Many of you have not graced the doors of our council home for years.
What will it take to bring you back?
What do you want to see from this council?
What events do you want us to do?
Do you want us to bring back anything in particular?
Special Dinners?
Dances?
Any specific local charities or events you want us supporting?
Please let me know. What can we do that will bring you out to be involved?
Do you want us doing more at St Andrews? St Elias? OLN?
I have heard of the past where the council hosted local teams in softball, bowling and golf. I
even heard of annual picnics out in the city parks. What do you as Knights of this council want to see. Please send me your ideas and wants. Email me atGK562@vakofc.org or drop a note to:
Grand Knight
PO Box 20974
Roanoke VA 24018
We want to see you all back involved with the
council. Please let us know what you would
like to do.
Vivat Jesus!

Grand Knight’s Report – February 2024
Worthy Brother Knights,
Hope your new year has been good so far. We are now entering the busiest time for our council – Lent and through spring has multiple events. We have everything from parties to fish fries to dinners to religious formation events. I ask everyone to please watch for notes and emails regarding all these going forward. I hope to see many of you at these different events and look forward to seeing how 2024 rolls out for us.
We will be holding an organizational meeting at the Council Home on Monday, February 19th at 7pm to just put dates on the calendar for events for the rest of the fraternal year. Please come and let your opinions and ideas be known.
I know that at least 2 of our Brothers are having issues getting email blasts so please let me know if you are having issues and I will make sure to email you directly.
Vivat Jesus!
