The second and fourth Wednesday of
each month at 7:00pm. Business meetings are on the second
Wednesday of each month and the General Meetings are on the
fourth Wednesday of each month at 7:00. We pray the rosary
before each meeting at 6:30 pm.
Every 2nd Sunday we celebrate mass
together at 8:00am at Blessed Sacrament in remembrance of our
fallen brothers. Every 3rd
Sunday we host Knights Lunch after the 10:00am and 12:15 masses.
The menu changes each month and helps us to raise funds for
various parish ministries and the Blessed Sacrament
School. Each year
on or about July 4 we present our Annual Fundraiser - The
Midsummer Night Gala and Reverse Raffle. Where we give out
over $5000 in prizes.
Knights Mass
Every
second Sunday of the month the Knights of Columbus host the
08:00 mass in remembrance of our fallen Knights.
Tootsie
Roll drives are scheduled quarterly. The next one is April
2008. Gather at the North Park Mall parking lot San Pedro and
Rector.
We needs lots of help. We
will be giving out Tootsie Rolls and collecting donations for
State Charities (Archbishops Ministry to the Deaf).
Our
Council sponsors two $1,100 scholarships for members of
Blesses Sacrament School.

For
those who are not eligible for life insurance for some
reason, a KC annuity is available for as little as $300.
The KC Annuity is paying 5.25 percent and proceeds are
non-taxable. What other insurance company do you know
that donated $1.6 Million to the Holy Father last year?
Please help your Council make all its goals. The KC
insurance programs include Permanent Plans, Term Plans,
Annuities, and newly added Long Term Care options. More
of us can count on living longer - thanks to advances in
medicine, healthier lifestyles, and improved access to
care. Now for the bad news: almost half of us will one
day require long-term care services at some point in our
lives.
The average cost of nursing home care in the U.S. is over
$45,000 per year. Home care is more affordable –
approximately $12,000 per year – but still carries a high
price tag. If you consider that you’re likely to be on a
fixed income during retirement, where will you get that
kind of money?
Many have to deplete their retirement savings to pay for
such care. Others are forced to rely on their children
for financial assistance – difficult to do when you’ve
valued your independence and have taught your children to
follow in your footsteps! |
 |
You do have a choice: Knights of Columbus Care, a
qualified long-term care insurance plan from the Knights
of Columbus.
You can design a plan that will meet your future care
needs – while fitting your present budget. In most states
you can choose from either comprehensive plans which
cover care in a variety of settings – or facility-only
plans.
Our Council Insurance Agent is Jesse Gutierrez. You can
call him at 695-3687 (business) or email him at
jesseg1224@cs.com. |
Council
4140 hosts our 1st Degree Ceremonies every third Thursday
each month. We attend the 5:30 Mass at Blessed
Sacrament and then caravan to Council 4140 located on camp
Bullis road
The
ceremonials for the 2nd and 3rd Degree (called the Major
Degrees), are held approximately three times a year in the
San Antonio area. There is no cost for the Degree or for the
lunch for the Major Degree candidate, as this is part of the
initiation fee when you joined the order. See
Schedule of Major Degrees in the San Antonio Area.

The
Fourth Degree is the Patriotic Order, and through it we
display our Patriotism at civic and religious events. To
be eligible, you must have made your first degree at
least six months prior. Please consider joining the
fourth degree. |
