Exemplification in Plano at Santa Maria Council 6065
2022-10-19 06:30 - 20:00 | St. Mark The Evangelist Catholic Church, 1201 Alma Dr, Plano, TX, 75075, United States
Worthy Grand Knights of the Dallas Diocese:
As we all know, one of the key priorities for our Diocese in the 2022/23 Fraternal Year is to grow the number of Catholic gentlemen inducted into our Order. The final and necessary step to this induction process is for each new member (or transfers from E-Membership) to participate in a Charity, Unity and Fraternity Exemplification ceremony. Our Diocese is working hard to have more “live” exemplification teams available to accommodate these needs. Experiencing the CUF ceremony live and in the company of other brothers and candidates in the most meaningful method of induction.
Council #6065 wishes to invite you and any qualified Candidates to a live Exemplification Ceremony at the St. Mark Catholic Church Chapel (1201 Alma Drive, Plano 75075) on Wednesday, October 19th at 7pm. This particular Exemplification will be conducted in english. If your Council wishes to bring Candidates to be initiated that night, please have them at the chapel by 6:30pm so that they can receive a Knights of Columbus Insurance orientation prior to the Ceremony. Please provide the number and names of the Candidates attending the ceremony by Monday, October 17that 5pm to SK Bill Butcher (billbutcher38@hotmail.com) so we have places reserved for them. Also let us know at that time if you are planning on bringing Rosaries, pins and temporary cards for the Candidates. As you know, guests and family are welcome to attend the Ceremony. There will be refreshments after the Ceremony in the Church Narthex. Please contact Bill at (469)450-6651 or billbutcher38@hotmail.com. if you have any questions.
Thank you for your continued efforts to meet our objectives for membership growth this year!

Brothers, thank you for your great help and support for Special Olympics. I am excited to tell you that Special Olympics is resuming their Bowling event this year after a two year absence. It will be at the same facility in Garland that we have used in the past, although the name has changed to Bowlero Garland. Here are the dates and shifts.
MONDAY, November 7: 10:00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)
TUESDAY, November 8: 10:00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)
WEDNESDAY, November 9 10:00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)
THURSDAY, November 10: 10:00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)
FRIDAY, November 11: 10:00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)

TUESDAY, November 15: 10;00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)
WEDNESDAY, November 16: 10:00AM TO 1:30PM (1 SHIFT)
THE KNIGHTS WILL ASSIST MR. DWAYNE LOVELL WITH THE PRESENTATION OF THE AWARDS TO THE ATHLETES. Each shift should be comprised of 15 or more volunteers to keep the movement of the athletes in an orderly fashion. We will be presenting the awards at two stations inside the bowling lanes as we did in the past. You are welcome to help during one or more shifts on Saturday and as many days as you can fit into your busy schedules.
This is a great family event. Women are invited to help with the handling of the medals and ribbons and teenage children are welcome to help bring the athletes up to the awards stations. It is a good opportunity for them to earn volunteer hours. Only the Knights will assist in the presentation of the awards to the athletes unless we are blessed with some celebrities.
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS SAFE ENVIRONMENT GUIDELINES:
We have been informed by the Knights of Columbus Safe Environment Chair all members of the Knights of Columbus and their family members are encouraged to assist with the upcoming Special Olympics events. All volunteers that do assist should be Safe Environment cleared; otherwise, they will be paired with a volunteer that has been cleared. Non-Catholic volunteers are welcome to assist with the presentation of awards and will be paired with a volunteer that has been safe environment cleared.
Because this is such a big event, please contact me at 972-966-3773 or philcoup1@gmail.com as soon as possible and let me know which shifts you can work. I am looking forward to seeing you again!
This event can be used as one of the service programs toward your Star Council award and for the Wings Award. Thanks in advance for your great support.
Fraternally,
Phil Coup, Special Olympics Coordinator for Dallas Diocese
