Haiti Earthquake Relief Message from Supreme: In an effort to come to the aid of the people of Haiti, who are suffering a humanitarian catastrophe of huge proportions in the wake of Tuesday evening's 7.0 earthquake, the Knights of Columbus has today sent an immediate contribution of $50,000 to Catholic Relief Services, and we invite Knights to make contributions through the Supreme Council so that we can maximize the impact of the funds raised, and document the amount donated in this tragedy by members of the Order. Donations by individual Knights can be made on line, and this feature should be available on the Supreme Council website (www.kofc.org) by later this evening. Checks should be made out to Knights of Columbus Charities, Inc. and mailed to 1 Columbus Plaza, New Haven, CT 06510. Please write "Haiti Earthquake Relief" on the memo line of the check. Contributions will be used to provide assistance wherever it can have the most immediate impact, and where the need is greatest. We ask all Knights and their families to also offer their prayers for the victims of this terrible disaster. Exemplification of the Fourth Degree Attention all Grand Knights and Financial Secretaries, especially those in District 27 (SK Ralph Manfredo, DD), time is rapidly running out to get signed Form 4's along with the appropiate initiation fees to SK Ed Blake, Faithful Comptroller, St. Joseph Assembly (webmstr@kofc8747.org) to secure a place for your qualified Third Degree member to take his final step to full Knighthood in the Order.

Bring a meatless soup to share. More information to follow soon. Thought For The Week Never bear more than one trouble at a time. Some people bear three kinds: all they have had, all they have now, and all they expect to have.
