Brothers, tomorrow night is our monthly meeting at 7PM. Adoration and Confessions start at 5PM with Mass at 6PM. The meeting will start promptly at 7PM so please arrive ahead of time. I am attaching the agenda and last months minutes, please review the minutes ahead of time as they will not be read during the meeting.
I want to thank everyone for their efforts in making the busy month of October run so smoothly. We had a lot going on and if it weren't for all of you that can help and show up we would not be able to help the people that we help. Thank you.
Also we have several people that are in need of prayer for healing and comfort, please include our brothers and their families in your daily prayers.

Grand Knight Report:
- October was an incredibly busy month thank you to everyone that helped make each event a
success. 460 new and used coats handed out, Rosary on the Square, Tootsie Roll Drive, Bed
Build, a Church Drive, and 2 fish fries. I am sure I missed something, but this is very
impressive.
- Gary and I attended the Mass of Remembrance for the Knights who have passed in the last
two years, it was beautiful.
- Try to make it to the 4th Degree Meeting on the 18th. This is a rare opportunity to have it here
in Marshfield so please take advantage of it and let’s represent our council well.
- The Church asked if we would do a pancake breakfast on December 20th in conjunction with
the Christmas Program. You have probably already seen the signs around. I did not see a
reason that we wouldn’t so I said that we would. We will need a few guys to help with this.
- I want to encourage anyone who does not have insurance with the Knights to meet with
Darrell and see what the Knights has to offer. There are some good products and not all of
them are Insurance.

present.
